Hello! My name is Josh and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with roughly 11 years of experience in the field, 6 of which have been in direct, community-based clinical practice. In that time, I have worked in adolescent and adult community mental health/crisis intervention including experience in residential treatment, school-based counseling, family counseling, LGBT+ issues, personality disorders, parenting problems, severe/persistent mental illness, anxiety, relationship problems, depression, family conflict, and trauma. All that said, my aim is simply helping others reach their goals of managing everyday life a little easier.
I like to believe that therapy is firstly based in a trusting relationship and enhanced by my clinical knowledge, not necessarily in disorders/clinical jargon; however, my approach combines cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavioral, solution-focused, strengths-based, and psychodynamic therapy and I am comfortable utilizing any/all of these to tailor treatment to your individual needs!
I applaud you for taking the first, often difficult, step towards meeting your goals and I look forward to working with you!

After years of trying therapy, I did not think I would find someone who I could trust and build a relationship with like the one I have now. Joshua is the best therapist I have ever had after lots of trial and error. I know picking out a therapist is really tough. Would highly suggest Joshua to anyone I know. He is amazing!

Josh has been a delight to work with! From providing a safe and comfortable space to share, to helping me find humor and lightness while navigating life changes. I'm a big fan. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

I’ve been working with Joshua for a little over a year and we’ve made a lot of progress. He does a great job of listening to and validating my thoughts and feelings but also challenging them when needed. He’s great

I’ve had 3 sessions so far with Josh. His attentiveness has been remarkable, I feel heard. He’s definitely opened up my thoughts about myself

Wonderful listener. I appreciate his perspective as well! Thankful to be working with him. It’s extremely helpful to have someone who can understand your life as a queer person.

Joshua has the comfortability of a friend and the expertise of a professional. I look forward to talking to him and have gained a lot of insight on the problems i’m going through. I can’t imagine talking to someone else.

Joshua is really compassionate and funny. I am very comfortable talking to him, and he has offered me both really useful insight as well as useful techniques to improve who I am as a person and improve my relationships. And he's a fun person who can laugh with me. I feel like I'm talking to a friend more than a professional.

Joshua has been incredibly helpful. He listens and makes me feel like everything is ok and workable. No other therapist has made me feel this comfortable opening up and working through things.

I have had a lot of success with Joshua in the short time we’ve been working together. Very thankful for him!

When I speak with Joshua I feel seen and heard. Our sessions always feel productive. He’s good at help me dissect and interpret my thoughts and feelings with an objective perspective. And he pushes me toward doing the work needed to make progress and resolving old issues and wounds. On top of it he’s really great about checking in between appointments to check on my success and well-being. Most effective therapist I’ve ever had. I recommend him 100%

Josh has been a tremendous help in my life. This is my first time ever using or getting therapy and he has made the jump so effortlessly. He is very attentive and understands my thoughts and things I struggle with. He has had such a huge impact on my life and I am so glad I was paired with him!

Working with Josh has been incredibly helpful for me. I had (have) a LOT of sludge to work through and had no experience with therapy before. He has been a wonderfully empathetic listener, and just assertively "nudging" enough at the right times.

Josh was a fantastic therapist to work with. He was very attentive and our sessions were conversational, but he always left me with homework to do, or a new skill to practice, or a new tool to try out to help me with my anxiety. I really appreciated how action-oriented he was, and how everything we worked on was meant to be implemented in my day to day struggles, and have an immediate impact. He was by far one of the most effective therapists I've ever worked with and I'm doing much better now as a result of my work with him!

Joshua has been great! I have only had two sessions with him so far but I already trust him enough to confide in him. Our sessions are relaxed and very conversational which I love. He even reaches out to me in between sessions which no other therapist of mine has ever done.

Joshua is amazing. He listens and understands me and has helped me tremendously.
