About Joshua

Joshua Dyer is a licensed clinical professional counselor working in Maine. He has eight years of experience helping people with relationship strain, anger, stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and parenting challenges. Joshua emphasizes that clients know their own stories and brings a steady, respectful presence to sessions.

He focuses on practical steps people can use day to day. Sessions aim to identify strengths, name patterns that cause trouble, and try small changes that fit into real life. Joshua often blends approaches to match what a person needs rather than sticking to a single method.

Joshua uses therapies that encourage values-based choices and clearer thinking. He helps people build skills for managing strong emotions, improving communication, and coping with major life changes. He also supports work on self-esteem, career decisions, and symptoms often linked with ADHD.

People who prefer a direct but collaborative style may find his approach fitting. He works to make the work feel manageable and focused, not overwhelming. The goal is steady progress toward the life each person wants to lead.

Joshua is licensed in Maine as an LCPC, and he offers work grounded in evidence-informed methods. Before scheduling, people should confirm current session options and timing to make sure they match their needs.

How his approaches fit into online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values while accepting difficult feelings. It is often used for stress, anxiety, anger, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments, which can help with mood, anxiety, and relationship patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication and distress tolerance.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Joshua will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying ideas, checking what helps, and shifting direction when needed so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and reduce travel time. It also lets people choose quieter surroundings or shorter check-ins when that helps, and it allows continuity of care during life transitions. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and DBT techniques to an online setting so sessions remain focused on making everyday improvements.
