More about Joseph

  • 10 years' experience
  • Male
  • LCSW

As a licensed therapist in Indiana, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life challenges. My professional approach centers on helping clients develop resilience, self-understanding, and effective coping strategies across various areas of personal growth.

I have extensive experience working with the dually diagnosed population, with people experiencing substance use/mental health issues and helping them to navigate their own journeys to Recovery and healing as they process raw emotions in a healthier way.

My practice includes individual as well as group counseling modalities and I use the empowering model to help individuals become more resilient in the face of adversity as they overcome the various stressors/challenges in life. I use a person-centered approach that focuses on the person and not the diagnosis. I help people to communicate more effectively with family, friends and emphasizes building communication skills, exploring control issues, and cultivating self-love. I am committed to creating a compassionate, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their experiences, develop healthier patterns, and work towards meaningful personal transformation.

I believe in partnering with my clients and walking alongside them as they embark on their journeys to maximize their potential and achieve the best that life has to offer. They are in the driver's seat while I am simply their "GPS".

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
