MEET DR. JOSH
I am a Licensed Psychologist with 17 years of experience helping people cut through the noise, confront uncomfortable truths, and make real changes. My approach is no-nonsense and results-driven. If you're looking for someone to simply nod along, that's not me. I combine evidence-based therapies like CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing with direct feedback and real-world tools. You won’t just talk about your problems—you’ll start solving them.
I specialize in working with clients who have been stuck in the same patterns or have struggled to make progress in past therapy. My work goes beyond talk—this is about action, accountability, and change.
I also offer relationship coaching, couples and family intensive and clinical case-management. In my practice, inclusivity isn’t a buzzword—it’s a commitment. You’ll get a space where you can be fully seen and challenged to become your best self.
If you’re ready to stop making excuses, face what’s been holding you back, and do the work, I’m here.
