His style centers on listening carefully and following the person’s lead. Josh uses Client-Centered methods to reflect what’s important and to strengthen a person’s own problem-solving. He also draws on Cognitive Behavioral ideas and mindfulness skills to help with overwhelming thoughts and strong emotions.
He brings eight years of overall experience to sessions and holds a Wyoming LPC credential. That background informs a steady, experienced approach while keeping the work focused on the person's goals.

How narrative and practical approaches work online
Joshua blends Narrative Therapy with Client-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral approaches to help people untangle unhelpful stories and try new ways of coping. Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from difficult events so they can see alternative meanings and options. Client-Centered work focuses on listening and reflecting so a person’s priorities lead the pace and direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and offers straightforward strategies to reduce worry and manage low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Josh works together with each person to see which methods fit their goals and daily life. He will suggest a few ways to proceed and adjust plans based on what feels useful and realistic.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people read tone and body language. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or text works well for brief check-ins and for practicing skills between meetings. These options help people keep therapy consistent around school, work, and family routines.
