Josh believes therapy can benefit everyone. He views each person as the expert of their own life and sees therapy as a tool for healing and guidance during difficult times.

At our Intensive Outpatient Program, Josh provides individual and group counseling using evidence-based approaches, including somatic desensitization, CBT and DBT, while maintaining a person-centered focus.

"When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves."
— Viktor Frankl
