About Joshua
Joshua Dyer is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maine with eight years of professional experience. He focuses on relationship strain, family conflict, and coping with life changes among other concerns. Joshua works with people facing anxiety, depression, addiction, stress, and parenting challenges. He uses practical, structured methods to help clients notice patterns that keep them stuck and try new ways of responding.
Joshua starts by listening to the specific problem and the context around it. He asks concrete questions about what is happening and what the client wants to change. Sessions are focused on identifying unhelpful thoughts, behaviors, and communication habits, then testing small changes in daily life.
His approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and client-centered ideas. That means he blends ways to change thinking and behavior with attention to values and what matters to the person. He also uses techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and existential perspectives when they fit the work.
People can expect a straightforward style that emphasizes skills practice between sessions. Joshua often assigns brief exercises to try between meetings and reviews what helped or didn’t. Progress is tracked by looking at specific actions and their results rather than vague goals.
He aims to help people reduce distress and make clearer choices about relationships, work, and parenting. Joshua invites clients to clarify practical steps they can take now and to build routines that support those steps.
How his approaches work for online sessions
Joshua uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT sessions focus on specific problems, practical exercises, and measurable steps to reduce distress and improve functioning.He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify their values and take committed actions aligned with those values even when feelings are difficult. Client-Centered Therapy informs his stance of listening carefully and following the client’s priorities while offering structure and feedback.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Joshua will work with the client to decide whether CBT, ACT, or a blend of methods fits their goals and preferences. He reviews what is working and adjusts the plan as needed so the work stays focused and useful.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, and use short check-ins when schedules are tight. The emphasis is on practical supports that integrate with everyday life rather than on long or vague talks.
