About Joshua

Joshua Dyer is a Maine-based licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) with eight years of experience helping people navigate relationship challenges, family conflict, life transitions, and attention-related concerns such as ADHD.

Background and approach

He frames clients as experts in their own lives and highlights existing strengths as the foundation for growth and change. Joshua aims to support each person’s efforts to become who they want to be while attending to practical issues like stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and substance-related struggles.

His work draws on a range of evidence-informed methods tailored to each client’s needs, including cognitive-behavioral tools, acceptance-based strategies, mindfulness practices, and skills from dialectical approaches. Joshua emphasizes collaboration and flexibility, choosing techniques that align with a client’s goals rather than following a single prescribed method.

He also addresses related areas such as attachment patterns, communication difficulties, caregiver stress, parenting concerns, and questions about life purpose and self-esteem.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Access

Joshua integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into his work to help clients clarify their values and commit to actions that align with what matters most, which can be helpful for stress, mood concerns, and navigating life changes. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behavior cycles, a practical option for anxiety, depression, and many day-to-day difficulties. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are sometimes incorporated to build emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when those specific skills are needed.

Deciding which approach fits best is a collaborative process. Joshua partners with each client to explore goals, preferences, and practical needs, adapting techniques over time so the plan evolves as progress and priorities change.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility for varying schedules and communication styles. These formats allow clients to work with a licensed professional from their home or another convenient location, making it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions or busy periods.
