Joshua (Josh) Harris, LPC

Joshua (Josh) Harris is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. He speaks plainly and aims to make beginning therapy feel manageable. He acknowledges that reaching out for help takes courage and encourages that first step.

Josh draws on four years of clinical experience and a background in ministry to shape his approach. He offers a nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings honestly. Sessions focus on practical steps clients can use between meetings to reduce worry and lift motivation.

Josh uses methods from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and from Mindfulness Therapy to build moment-to-moment awareness. He also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set concrete, short-term goals and track progress. These approaches are used together to match each person's needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.

Common topics Josh addresses include forgiveness, guilt and shame, questions of life purpose, men's issues, and process addictions such as problematic pornography use, exercise, or gambling. He works with people who want clear tools and steady support while they make changes.

People can expect practical conversations, simple strategies to try between sessions, and a calm, respectful atmosphere. Josh is licensed in Alabama and holds the LPC credential.

How his approaches work in online therapy

Joshua uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach often involves homework and clear practices to try between sessions. He also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple awareness skills that reduce reactivity and improve focus. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set short-term goals and track small, practical changes.

Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work together. Josh will discuss your goals and preferences and adjust strategies over time. The process is collaborative, with the client helping to choose what feels most useful.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use tools like guided mindfulness practices and worksheets during or between meetings to support steady progress.
