About Joshua

Joshua (Josh) Harris is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Alabama with four years of clinical experience. He helps people who feel stuck by addressing stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and problems with motivation. He also works with those dealing with guilt and shame, questions about life purpose, men's issues, and process addictions such as gambling, exercise, or pornography.

Josh uses straightforward conversations to identify what matters now. Sessions focus on practical steps and small experiments rather than long lectures. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients notice patterns, test new responses, and build clearer routines.

Because he has a background in ministry, some clients come to Josh wanting to include spiritual or faith concerns in their talks. He will follow the topics the client brings and weave those concerns into goal-setting when relevant. He encourages clients to name what they care about and to try concrete changes that fit their daily life.

In sessions Josh listens for what gets in the way of decisions, energy, and self-trust. He offers tools to shift unhelpful thoughts, brief mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity, and focused problem-solving to tackle immediate obstacles. Progress is tracked by small, observable steps rather than broad promises.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and pick a first session. The counselor uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time, and meetings are conducted in English from his Alabama practice.

How Josh integrates approaches in online sessions

Josh commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in session. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing different responses so daily choices change. Mindfulness Therapy offers short practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of thoughts and feelings.

He approaches the choice of method collaboratively. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then try approaches that fit those goals. Together they check what helps and adjust the plan based on what the client finds useful.

The profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling around work or family routines, allow a quick check-in that does not require travel, and remove the need to be on camera for every meeting if that helps someone participate. Licensed professionals use these formats to keep regular momentum while working toward small, concrete changes.
