Joshua is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Mental Health Counselor. Providing therapeutic support for others is at the core of his motivation to be a therapist. Friends and family are integral to all of our existence, yet there are times we need safe, comfortable, professional, and qualified support in our life. That is what motivates Joshua to offer a holistic approach to therapy for others.

He works with teenagers through adults who experience all types of mental and emotional distress. He is trained in addictions counseling and works with both those struggling with addiction and their family members. Joshua is also an Advanced Schema Therapist, which is an approach to counseling he believes fits perfectly with his holistic approach to therapy and he is actively completing his training in Brainspotting, which is a trauma-based treatment approach.  

Joshua believes hospitality is not a value just for home, so he makes it a point to make his clients feel welcomed when coming into therapy. Becoming vulnerable with another person is some of the most challenging work we have to do in therapy, and a comfortable, inviting environment can help bring someone into that level of honesty.

He has been licensed to practice counseling in PA since 2011 and licensed in FL as of 2021. Joshua has worked in both the community and private sectors of mental health and drug and alcohol counseling. He has a strong network of professionals around him in order to aid him in providing the best care to his clients. He is currently accepting PA clients for Telehealth only and accepting clients both in-person and virtually for FL
