About Joshua

Joshua Dyer is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Maine. He brings eight years of clinical experience and a straightforward focus on supporting people through relationship strain, mood struggles, and life transitions.

He listens first and follows the needs a person brings to sessions. Joshua believes people know their own stories, so he helps them notice patterns and try different ways of responding.

Background and approach

Sessions are practical and focused on what is useful in daily life. Joshua draws from several approaches to match what a client needs. He may use cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thinking or mindfulness and acceptance strategies to reduce avoidance.

He also uses client-centered listening to make space for the person’s experience and DBT skills for emotion regulation when those tools fit. Many people come for stress, anxiety, depression, or ADHD-related concerns and leave with clearer plans for coping and calmer day-to-day routines. He also supports those dealing with addiction, trauma, parenting stress, communication problems, and life purpose questions.

Joshua pays attention to attachment and caregiver stress as part of relational work. Sessions move at a person’s pace. Joshua helps set small, realistic steps between meetings so progress feels manageable.

He aims to make therapy a practical part of life, not an added burden.

How therapy methods translate to online care

Joshua often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which centers on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values; this approach can help with anxiety, depression, and life direction issues. Client-Centered Therapy is another key influence and focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy involves identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Joshua will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most. That collaborative process means techniques can shift as needs change and progress becomes clearer.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for short check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing connection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel routines while keeping treatment flexible and consistent.
