Joy Martin, MA, LPC-A

Hello, I'm Joelnika (Joy) Martin. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (LPC-A), as well as a wife and mother to seven children ranging in age from 14 to 24. As you can imagine, my home is always buzzing with energy and excitement! I was born in Puerto Rico, but I spent most of my life in South Florida, and I’m fluent in Spanish.

I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton. After graduation, I worked at a shelter for homeless youth and single mothers, which ignited my passion for making a meaningful impact in my community. I enjoy working with teens, young adults, and couples. My heart is to help individuals and families navigate life’s challenges and foster deeper connections.

For over 20 years, I’ve been actively involved with nonprofit organizations dedicated to providing resources and support for women facing crisis pregnancies.
