Greetings! My name is Joseph Howard. After several years working as a counselor with military-connected clients, I have returned to BetterHelp. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Indendent Social Worker.. I first began working in the counseling field in 1988. I've worked in a variety of settings throughout my career. I've worked with children, teenagers, families, couples and single adults. Most recently, I served assignments as a counselor with the US Military, serving children, adolescents and families. I've also worked in private practice with adults and young adults entering the world of college, careers and relationships. Clients have found me to be compassionate and down-to-earth. My aim is to help you gain deeper awareness, self-compassion and healing in areas of your life that until now, may have remained confusing and hidden. It's the path of discovering yourself, of accepting and loving yourself as you are. I use a non-pathological approach with all of my clients. We are all works in progress, worthy of success. Our time together is designed to give you new experiential information and to help you take action in alignment with your core goals, to write the story that you want to live, and to live it. This is counseling with a practical, spiritual and emotional focus. Change happens from the inside out and and also from the outside in. I assist you to use both approaches in the most effective ways. Often, I will ask you to do a task or try some new actions. this might be during our session on in your free time. I've found that counseling works when you work it. Counseling isn't a passive process. I want to help you get deeper into your life. You deserve the best! My clinical orientation and training includes Client-Centered Therapy, P.E.E.R. (Primary-Emotional-Energy-Recovery), Gestalt, Mindfulness, Internal Family Systems,Energy, somatic-based methods and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. I also draw from Yogic and Russian Systema-based breatjwork. I've found that some of the principles and exercises are useful in helping clients to feel calmer, release stress, have more groundedness and take decisive actions. I look forward to our work together!

For as long as I can remember, I have always been the person who my friends went to for advice. I always knew I wanted to help others, so I attended UNC Charlotte to receive my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling to turn my passion into a reality. It was not until I went through a difficult situation in my life, where I battled cancer in my twenties, that I realized exactly what I was meant to do. The feeling of being alone, and not having anyone who truly understood me, taught me that I never wanted anyone else to feel the way that I did. I have been blessed to work in environments where I had the opportunity to work with a diverse population of all ages on various different issues. I gained experience in working with individuals, couples, and families. I provide therapy for young adults and adults. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, grief and loss, and life’s stressors. My approach in therapy is that you do not have to face life’s challenges by yourself. I will be there next to you to walk with you on your journey. I do my best to provide unconditional support, warmth, empathy, and understanding by providing you a safe and non-judgmental environment. I believe in using different types of therapeutic approaches in therapy since I believe everyone is different. I utilize Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Reality Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, while remaining Person-Centered to help you recognize your strengths. I use different tools to help you learn the skills to help you cope with life’s stressors. I also believe in the importance of self-care as a part of your well-being. I hope to instill hope and positivity into your life.
