About Joshua
Joshua (Josh) Phelps is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who uses client-centered principles to guide sessions and emphasize each person's strengths and lived experience.
Background and approach
Josh frames therapy as a collaborative process, helping clients make sense of stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, and symptoms associated with ADHD by building on what already works for them.
He integrates cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns, and draws from dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness practices to teach emotion regulation and moment-to-moment coping skills. Narrative therapy informs his approach to how clients tell and reshape their personal stories, especially when processing loss, trauma, or mood-related concerns.
With eight years of professional experience practicing in Wyoming, Josh aims to create a respectful space where practical strategies meet a strengths-based perspective. He acknowledges that starting therapy can feel daunting and seeks to support people through those first steps while working toward clearer patterns of thought, improved coping, and more manageable day-to-day functioning.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and validating each person's experience while tailoring sessions around their goals and strengths. Online, this approach focuses on creating a collaborative therapeutic relationship where the client's priorities guide session work and treatment planning.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) provides concrete strategies to identify and modify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, mood challenges, and ADHD-related difficulties. Delivered remotely, CBT often uses structured exercises, homework, and skill coaching that adapt well to video, phone, or text-based formats.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) contributes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that are useful for impulsivity and mood symptoms. These skills can be taught in real time through video or supported by live chat and messaging for in-the-moment practice.
Finding the best therapeutic approach is part of the initial work together; the therapist will collaborate with clients to select methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape which techniques are emphasized and how they are applied in online sessions.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility by allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice skills between sessions, and schedule appointments around daily life while working with licensed professionals who adapt interventions to remote formats.
