About Joshua
Joshua Dyer is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) based in Maine. He focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain, or major life changes. He works with individuals on issues like depression, addiction concerns, parenting strain, and career questions.
Joshua believes clients bring important knowledge about their lives and builds on those strengths. He frames therapy as a collaborative process. Sessions center on clear goals and practical steps that fit daily life.
Background and approach
He draws from several approaches and tailors methods to each person rather than using one fixed style. Joshua often uses techniques from cognitive behavioral work to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. He also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and create committed action toward meaningful goals.
Mindfulness and skills from dialectical approaches are woven in when emotional regulation and stress tolerance are needed. Over eight years of practice, he has supported people navigating attachment concerns, caregiver stress, communication breakdowns, divorce, and grief. He pays attention to shame, guilt, and issues around control that can keep people stuck.
Sessions are offered in English and are available through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Joshua aims to help people find steady ways to cope, rebuild confidence, and move toward the life they want.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Joshua blends several practical approaches to help people facing anxiety, stress, relationship strain, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real life experiments to change behavior and mood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small committed steps toward those values while learning to accept difficult feelings.These methods are used together with a client-centered stance that keeps the persons goals in focus. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and preferences rather than insisting on one method from the start.
Online sessions offer flexible ways to connect. Video calls are well suited for full conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can support brief check-ins, skill practice between sessions, or people who prefer written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while still working on meaningful change.
