About Joshua

Joshua Crockett is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of experience helping people manage strong emotions and life stress. He focuses on practical steps to reduce anger, anxiety, and depression so daily life feels more manageable. Joshua works with adults and young people and offers straightforward support without jargon.

He uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person. Conversations usually start with what matters most to the client and a few small goals. Sessions often include thought-focused strategies, mindfulness exercises, and problem-solving tools to handle conflicts and upsetting moments.

Joshua has worked with people facing family separation, divorce, grief, and parenting strain. He also has experience supporting children who survived abuse and neglect, and people dealing with addiction and compassion fatigue. That background informs a practical, safety-minded way of helping someone regain steady ground.

In sessions he aims to be respectful, direct, and compassionate. Progress is tracked in small steps so changes feel achievable. Joshua is licensed in Georgia as an LCSW, and also holds the CSW credential.

To start, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules appointments according to Joshua's availability. Cost varies with location and is billed through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-centered therapy puts the person's priorities first. It means sessions begin by listening to what the client wants to change, then shaping goals together. This approach helps when someone needs a safe place to sort through strong feelings and decide next steps.

Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches simple skills to reframe unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that fuel anger or anxiety. Those skills can be practiced between sessions and reviewed with the therapist.

Mindfulness therapy uses short attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity. Learning to notice bodily sensations and thought patterns helps people pause before reacting in heated moments. These exercises are brief and can fit into a busy day.

Choosing the best approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss what seems most useful based on the client's goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. Plans are adjusted over time if something isn't working or needs to change.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are set by the therapist. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into work, school, or caregiving schedules, reduce travel time, and allow practice of skills in real-life settings. It also lets sessions be shorter or more flexible when that helps with scheduling.
