Background and approach

Joshua also supports people dealing with substance use, process addictions, immigration-related stress, and post-traumatic stress. He uses mindfulness and client-focused conversation to help people notice patterns and try new ways of coping. His approach draws on client-centered methods and existential ideas that ask what matters most to each person.

He also offers EMDR and motivational interviewing as options when those methods fit a person's goals. Sessions include straight talk, paced skill practice, and opportunities to reflect on values and purpose. Joshua has worked in a range of settings since 2002, including wilderness therapy, correctional programs, transitional housing for Veterans, and community mental health.

He has run a independent practice since 2015 and has long used mindfulness in his work. He speaks English and will work with international clients in a consultant or coaching role when licensing limits apply. Outside of counseling he enjoys running, biking, writing, meditation, and travel.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Joshua often uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening, clarifying, and following the person's lead to build clearer choices and coping skills. This approach helps with everyday stress, anxiety, and questions about life direction.

He also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as an option to address trauma-related distress and intrusive memories. EMDR is a structured method that can help reduce the intensity of painful memories when it fits a person's goals.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try techniques that match your needs, and adjust over time based on what helps you meet your goals. Clients are invited to share preferences and feedback as part of planning care.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is good for full sessions and face-to-face conversation, phone is helpful when bandwidth is limited, chat or text works for quick check-ins or shorter exchanges, and messaging lets clients share between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, travel, or busy family routines while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
