Week 1
Luke 15:20-24 | Mental Health & The Church: How to Make Space for Big Feelings
Meet Joy Flemming, LISW-S
Joy is a Licensed Independent Social Worker who works as a family therapist with the mood and anxiety program at Nationwide Children’s Hospital and is a member of our SNC family. Her passion and focus is helping couples and families make space for their own and their loved ones' big feelings. Joy's work has taught her that mental health is a full family effort and is best supported in community.
Joy and her husband Curt have been happily married for 28 years and together raised three wickedly smart and hard-working women of power, Glorianna, Hannah and Chloe. Glorianna married Devon three years ago and gave Hannah and Chloe their heart's desire, an older brother. Together the family works to make space for all their big feelings and live out their family motto “Work together/Play together”.

For over 20 years I have worked in the areas of social service and mental health.

My approach to therapeutic encounters is collaborative- integrating multiple perspectives, cognitive reframing, emotional support, and the skills to help them transform, manage, and navigate life in a way that fosters sustainability and amplifies wellness and hope.
