About Joshua

Joshua Sheets is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina who draws on nine years of clinical experience to help people move past patterns that keep them feeling stuck.

Background and approach

He combines practical, evidence-informed methods with attention to a person's broader life context - including physical wellbeing, values, and relationships - to address concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and ADHD. Joshua frames change as a stepwise process, helping clients identify small, actionable moves that accumulate into meaningful progress over time.

His work emphasizes building strengths and teaching skills that can resolve current difficulties and reduce the impact of future challenges. Using techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused Therapy, he supports clients in shifting unhelpful thoughts, developing healthier behaviors, and creating clear goals.

Joshua encourages honest, collaborative effort between sessions so that the changes agreed upon become part of daily life rather than something that only happens in therapy.

Approaches That Guide Online Work and Growth

Joshua uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and test unhelpful thoughts and develop new coping behaviors; this approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood-related concerns. He also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to teach present-moment awareness and stress-reduction skills that can support people managing grief, anger, chronic stress, or sleep disturbance. Solution-Focused Therapy is employed to set clear, short-term goals and to generate practical steps clients can try between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist and client will explore which methods align with the client’s needs, goals, and comfort level, and they will adjust strategies together as progress unfolds. This partnership helps tailor treatment so it addresses immediate problems while building lasting skills.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexible access for different lifestyles and schedules. These formats allow clients to engage in therapy from wherever they are, maintain continuity of care during life transitions, and use tools that fit their communication preferences.
