About Joshua
He sees each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking so daily life feels more manageable. Joshua keeps language simple and conversations direct to help parents and busy people follow along on a phone or during a short break.
His work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered listening, and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy when needed. He tailors methods to fit what an individual prefers and what their situation needs. Therapy is collaborative and adjusts as goals change.
Joshua earned his LCPC and has eight years of clinical experience in Maine settings. That experience includes helping people sort through family conflict, caregiver stress, communication breakdowns, and the emotional fallout of separation or divorce. He also addresses attention differences such as ADHD and mood disorders.
People can expect straightforward talk about patterns, relatable examples, and exercises to try between sessions. The aim is clearer choices and more effective coping in day-to-day life.
How Joshua’s Approaches Work Online
Joshua uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood through action and practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and committed action, helping people accept difficult feelings while moving toward what matters most.He also brings a client-centered stance that prioritizes listening and understanding. In sessions he helps people clarify goals and decide which methods feel right. Figuring out the best approach is a joint process that may shift as needs and goals change.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversations and exercises that benefit from face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone needs a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging are helpful for brief updates, coaching between sessions, or for people who prefer writing over speaking.
These formats make it easier to schedule around work, caregiving, or school, and allow therapy to continue when meeting in person is difficult. Joshua will discuss which format best supports the goals and practical needs of each person.
