I’m Joy Redstone. Welcome to Radiant Life Counseling


About my practice

A Radiant Life refers to my approach to work with clients: after 29 years in the field as well as my own personal life experience, I want to help clients experience the texture of beauty inherent in life itself, which is available in the present moment, and can be fostered in each session. This is a radical approach to living which isn’t simply problem-solving; it is non-pathologizing, practical, and a way through the most difficult experiences we can know.

I have been a social worker and addiction counselor in practice for almost three decades, with active LCSW and CAC III credentials.

During the past 10 years, I trained clinicians as the director of a counseling agency. Having spent years fostering the growth of newer therapists, I am focusing on my own private practice.

I primarily work with adults and adolescents. I often work with PTSD, grief, and addictions and am competent working with the intensity of ADHD, bipolar and mood disorder conditions. I always aim to support clients resolution of underlying conflicts.

Beyond humanistic talk therapy, I employ somatic and creative / visual art techniques (I have years experience working as an artist as well) as well as transpersonal psychotherapy.

I offer psychedelic integration therapy in my practice, and provide other evidence-based practices such as CBT and DBT.

I work in person as well as via telehealth.

I take multiple insurances; please contact me to confirm.
