Reaching out for support is not always easy, especially when life feels overwhelming, stressful, or uncertain. If you're here exploring counselling, you've already taken an important first step.

​I'm Joy Yoonjeong Choi, a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) and Registered Social Worker serving clients across Alberta, Ontario, and Saskatchewan. I'd like to introduce myself so you can get a sense of who I am, how I work, and whether we may be a good fit to work together.

I am a nature-loving, artful soul who finds deep happiness in life's simple, peaceful moments. These values continue to shape my counselling approach, which emphasizes compassion, authenticity, and meaningful connection.

My interest in counselling began while studying for a bachelor's degree in social welfare, particularly through a Family Therapy course that sparked a deeper curiosity about relationships, healing, and personal growth.

Are you exhausted from always being the strong one? Do you find yourself caught in patterns of perfectionism, people-pleasing, anxiety, OCD, or emotional overwhelm? Perhaps you've spent years pushing through stress, burnout, or self-doubt without realizing how deeply these patterns affect your relationships, emotions, and daily life.

My work focuses on helping clients understand these patterns, heal from trauma, regulate their nervous system, and reconnect with a stronger and more authentic sense of self through EMDR, somatic therapy, and evidence-based approaches.
