After 15 years of agency work, Joseph went into private practice in 1997. He obtained National Certification as a mental health professional and now combines his expertise with addictive processes with a holistic understanding of how these processes occur within a bigger milieu - often defined through unresolved grief and trauma.

I am dedicated to working with people who want to get at the roots of their emotional pain and distress. My fundamental approach to treatment is relational. Therapy is a process where we will develop an alliance in which your emotional and developmental needs are made a priority. Over time, an internalized healing space forms where you can recover access to parts of your true self. Speaking freely without unnecessary self-censorship may be simple, but it is not easy. I encourage you to try it.

Do you need to heal and move forward after the end of a relationship? Are you having difficulty developing authentic, mutually caring connections with friends or romantic partners?

I seek to create a safe, welcoming environment where genuine conversation and exploration can occur. My specialties include relationships, sexual challenges, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, ADHD, and distress around identity. I also support clients with transitions to parenthood and postpartum challenges. Oftentimes these life transitions are more difficult than most people can imagine. I recognize the obstacles each person overcomes to start therapy and the courage required to begin that process. Together, we will look for pragmatic and effective ways to ignite the process towards feeling better and living a more authentic life.

Throughout my time as a professional, I have grown to understand the significance surrounding connecting childhood learnings and patterns to problems currently arising within my client’s world. I believe we can't change our current situations if we don't know what is driving the behavior or thought process. Starting at the source and establishing patterns and connections is vital in healing, growing, and creating new behaviors and ways of thinking. I often utilize DBT, CBT, attachment theory, and family systems models within the therapy space.

I offer the following: Mind-Body-Spirit integrative strategies for performance enhancement. I guide couples to create thriving, joyful relationships through understanding differences, and to develop improved connection. We resolve trauma to enhance relationship skill to self and others.

I help caregivers find resources to adjust and grow. I help to motivate health and fitness goals while clients practice transforming their self-esteem, from the inside out.

The work at our group practice, Better Lives Building Tribes, focuses on that complex point, at which, individuals intersect with another. Through intimate/romantic relationships, friendships, partnerships, families, and organizations that we are surrounded by, we learn where individual strengths and weaknesses are. Through that knowledge and understanding, we work with people to discover creative means of closing the gap between where people are right now and where they would ideally like to be.
