About Joshua
Joshua Martin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina with seven years of experience. He works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, career concerns, and depression. Joshua commonly supports people facing issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties, communication problems, and loneliness.
He uses straightforward conversations to identify what matters most to each person. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps, not jargon. Joshua emphasizes real-world skills for managing panic attacks, phobias, and social anxiety along with helping people work through guilt, shame, and problems around control.
In sessions he draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. That mix helps with changing unhelpful thinking, building coping strategies, and clarifying personal values and life purpose. Motivational Interviewing and existential ideas inform how he talks about meaning and choices.
Joshua recognizes the pressure many young adults feel when leaving home, starting work, or finishing school. He often addresses career stress, relationship uncertainty, and the sense of falling behind. Conversations also cover men’s issues, forgiveness, and prejudice or discrimination when those topics come up.
He asks people to set goals together and tries to fit therapy into busy schedules. To begin, Joshua uses a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session after that step. International clients may be accepted, and sessions are conducted in English.
How his approaches work for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches skills to change patterns that feed panic, depression, and social anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration so clients can set their own goals and explore what matters to them.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences and recommend which methods to try first. That decision is revisited as therapy progresses so the plan can change based on what helps.
Session format details were not specified in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around school, work, or busy days because you do not need to travel. Shorter check-ins, sessions that do not require video, or scheduling outside typical business hours are practical ways online work can fit a young adult life.
