I work with clients who struggle with Addiction and Substance Abuse issues, to include internet and gaming issues. During our sessions, we will collaborate to create a plan for addressing them that helps you resolve such issues in a meaningful manner to restore functioning enabling and empowering you to move beyond your past. I practice from a Holistic perspective and commonly employ EMDR and other effective modalities with helping clients achieve balance and purpose in their lives and creative solutions to their problems. This includes exploring past issues and trauma that may be a factor presently.

Substance Use Disorders are about taking things one step at a time. I help clients to be more aware of how their thoughts and feelings are contributing to unhealthy behaviors.
Substance use disorders can be difficult to live with because they can be havoc on personal relationships and goals. Joshua has 15 years of experience treating folks with substance use disorders and founded the Virginia Tech Recovery Community, a space dedicated to helping students explore their relationship with substance use. Joshua uses harm reduction language and strategies to help you understand where you are at with your use and find a plan that works for you. There is hope. You don't even have to want to quit now, just have an idea that maybe one day, it'll be different. Consider booking a free 30-minute consult to explore more.
Navigating the path to recovery from drugs or alcohol can be daunting, but you're not alone. Our approach combines evidence-based strategies with compassionate support to help you overcome the challenges of substance use. Together, we'll work on developing coping skills, addressing underlying issues, and building a sustainable, healthy lifestyle free from the constraints of addiction.
Recognizing that recovery is a journey, I focus on creating a supportive and non-judgmental environment where clients feel safe to explore the underlying issues contributing to their substance use. Our goal is to empower individuals with the tools and skills needed to achieve sobriety, improve mental health, and enhance overall well-being.
