About Javonne
Javonne Spivey is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 10 years of experience. She works with people who face depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma, relationship strain, anger, and life changes. Javonne also supports concerns like grief, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, ADHD, career questions, and exploring life purpose.
Her sessions are straightforward and collaborative. She explains how thoughts, emotions, and actions link together and helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns. She invites clients to give feedback and to take an active role in setting goals and deciding what to try next.
Javonne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing as the main approaches in her work. She often teaches concrete skills for tracking thoughts and testing them against experience. She also introduces practical ways to increase motivation when people feel stuck.
Javonne integrates Christian scripture when clients want that element in their care. She has developed a Christian mental wellness journal called Changing My Unhealthy Thoughts that outlines a technique named prayerful thoughts. The journal shows how scripture can be used to challenge and replace unhealthy thinking when a client chooses that path.
People who meet with Javonne typically do focused, skills-based work alongside reflective conversation. She describes the relationship as cooperative and goal-oriented, and she aims to help people move toward clearer thinking, calmer reactions, and more purposeful next steps.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Javonne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test them against real situations. CBT focuses on practical skill-building like tracking thoughts, trying small experiments, and changing routines to reduce angry reactions. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-focused method that helps people find reasons to change and build their own commitment to new behaviors.Choosing the best approach is part of the process. She works with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjusts the plan as needs change. That collaborative decision making helps keep sessions practical and relevant to everyday life.
