About Joshua
Joshua Dyer is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maine with eight years of practice experience. He works with adults who are dealing with relationship strain, parenting stress, anger, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, and life changes. He also supports people facing ADHD, trauma and abuse, or struggles with self-esteem and career direction.
Joshua starts from the view that the client knows their story best. He looks for strengths a person already has and builds on them. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than labels or lecture-style advice.
He uses a mix of approaches tailored to what each person needs. That may mean learning new behavior skills, practicing present-moment awareness, or talking through values and choices. Joshua draws on methods from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment work, dialectical behavior skills, and client-centered conversation.
In the room, conversations are direct and goal-minded. People often work on communication, managing anger and control issues, and reducing stress that gets in the way at home or work. He also helps with attachment concerns, caregiver stress, and decisions around separation or divorce.
Joshua aims to help people translate what they learn in sessions into everyday life. That includes concrete strategies for mood management, practical skills for handling triggers, and steps to improve relationships. Prospective clients who want clear, task-focused support about anger and related issues may find his approach helpful.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Joshua commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and making committed actions that align with those values, which helps when anger is tied to meaning or life choices. CBT breaks down unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teaches practical skills to change responses and behaviors, useful for managing irritability and workplace stress.He also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT techniques teach concrete steps to lower immediate reactivity and to communicate under stress more effectively. These methods aim to give people tools they can practice between sessions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and try different methods to see what fits. Sessions are adapted over time based on what helps most in your daily life.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find it helpful to practice skills in real-world moments and then bring questions back to sessions for focused coaching.
