About Joshua
Joshua (Josh) Harris is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Alabama with four years of clinical experience. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and motivation struggles. He also offers support around forgiveness, guilt and shame, questions about life purpose, men's issues, and process addictions such as problematic porn, exercise, or gambling.
Josh draws on practical, evidence-informed approaches to keep sessions focused and useful. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new ways of responding. Mindfulness-based techniques are used to anchor attention and reduce overwhelm. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set small, concrete goals and track progress week to week.
Josh brings a background in ministry and works with some clients from a faith perspective when that is important to them. He aims to build a nonjudgmental atmosphere where people can talk about difficult feelings and choices. Conversations are straightforward and goal oriented, with attention to what is most urgent for the person in front of him.
Sessions tend to focus on practical steps clients can try between meetings. That can mean short behavioral experiments, simple mindfulness practices, or identifying one small change that would reduce daily strain. The approach is collaborative: Josh helps people decide what to try next and reviews what worked.
For someone carrying guilt or shame, Josh offers direct, step-by-step work to unpack the feeling, look at the stories behind it, and find manageable alternatives to avoidance or harsh self-judgment.
How his approaches work for online sessions
Joshua commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in session. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep stress and anxiety active and teaches practical ways to test and change them. Mindfulness Therapy offers short attention practices and grounding exercises that reduce reactivity and make it easier to notice patterns without getting swept away.Finding the right method is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose whether CBT, mindfulness exercises, or a solution-focused emphasis best fits their goals and preferences. That choice can change over time and is revisited as progress is tracked.
Confirm the exact session formats offered before booking, as the profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when schedules are tight. They also support using screen-shared worksheets, guided mindfulness practices, and homework tasks that are reviewed together in the next meeting. Licensed professionals can help adapt exercises so they fit everyday life and responsibilities.
