Discomfort prompts us to seek change. This feeling may come from an old problem or from old pain that seems to follow you through the years of your life. It may also come from a new problem that has caught you by surprise or left you feeling stuck. Maybe you just feel drawn toward your potential to improve the quality of your life in some way. Together we will tailor the course of counseling to meet your needs and your goals. I strive to create an environment that provides warmth and humor in order to provide the comfort required to address life's difficult problems.

Whether you are suffering from acute symptoms or looking to boost your mental well-being, therapy can help. My name is Josué, but most people simply call me Josh. A wide range of life experiences prior to becoming a therapist has helped to widen my perspective and acceptance of the true uniqueness of each individual’s story.

Sometimes children and teens may need additional support to provide new ways of coping during these challenging times. Recent temporary changes to the way children learn and socialize with friends may have contributed to increased feelings of loneliness, worry, or frustration. As a parent, you may also be feeling overwhelmed, especially when there is still so much unknown.

One way or another, we have all been wounded by what has happened recently. We now look at our world, our assumptions and our future with a new uncertainty, which seems to make us all anxious and uncomfortable and disoriented. One effect of all this trauma and stress is to exacerbate and recreate old issues and blocks and difficulties inside us and with others. So this work may include unfinished problems we had thought we'd grown and developed past, but which need now to be re-addressed for healing again. Counseling is certainly one of the ways for us to rediscover and establish ourselves.

I believe in client feedback for setting goals and evaluating whether therapy is working for them. It's not my goals or "success rate" that is important but what the client experiences. I value working with clients who know what a 'better life' will look like, will work on getting there, and will provide feedback about progress or resistence. Of course I'm there to provide help when stuck but I value clients to provide their feedback and be engaged in the therapeutic process.

You keep hoping that one thing will change and everything else will be ok. But that one thing never seems to change, or sometimes it does and there's something else that starts eating at you. If this sounds like you, I can help! I see therapy as a safe place to explore all thoughts, feelings and behaviors. The more you can talk about your life, the more mental space is created. Having more internal mental space gives us the freedom to approach problems with more energy and creativity, leading to the resolve we yearn.

What method of therapy is right for me?
When it comes to treatment methods, there's no 'right way'. A couples counselor or a family counselor may use different techniques depending on the one that works best for you. Learn what to expect from different types of therapy and how they work.
How to use my insurance?
Many therapists accept health insurance. Check to see if your insurance is covered. Feel free to discuss this when you contact the therapist.
