Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Joshua integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) into online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on respect, empathy, and collaboration, helping clients explore their values and build confidence while the therapist follows their lead. CBT offers practical strategies to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and addiction-related challenges.He also draws on elements of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) when clients need tools for emotion regulation, impulsivity, or difficult interpersonal situations. DBT provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships, and these skills translate well to remote sessions and between-session practice.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and Joshua works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Online therapy with him can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling, easier access from home, and the ability to continue work between sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt these methods to each client's pace and priorities to support consistent progress.
