Joy Butler, LCSW-Associate, helps teens, adults, and older adults navigate emotional challenges with clarity, compassion, and practical tools for change. Serving patients across North Carolina, she provides evidence-based therapy for individuals and couples seeking support for anxiety, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, and life transitions. Joy creates a space where clients feel genuinely heard and respected while working toward meaningful, sustainable progress in their mental health. Joy is especially passionate about offering therapy that allows people to show up as they truly are. She believes that healing begins with authenticity—even when emotions feel intense, messy, or difficult to express. By welcoming honesty first and refining coping strategies together, Joy helps clients build insight, emotional regulation, and healthier patterns that support long-term growth and resilience. Her clinical focus includes anxiety disorders, ADHD, and trauma-related conditions, with additional experience supporting concerns such as mood disorders and relational stress. Joy works with teens, adults, and seniors, and has experience supporting individuals on the autism spectrum. She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based approaches to help clients better understand thought patterns, manage stress, and develop skills that improve daily functioning and emotional well-being. Outside of work, Joy enjoys restoring furniture, watching DIY projects, exploring yard sales, and relaxing with classic 70s and 80s music and movies.

Joy Butler provides services with supervision.
