Joshua Dyer, LCPC

Joshua Dyer is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Maine, licensed since 2015 and bringing eight years of professional experience to his therapeutic work. He focuses on helping people navigate relationship challenges, mend family conflicts, and cope with major life changes while treating each person as the expert of their own story.

Joshua approaches therapy with a strengths-based mindset, looking for the resources clients already possess and helping them apply those strengths to overcome obstacles. He offers supportive guidance as people clarify goals and move toward the person they want to become, recognizing that change is often complex and non-linear. To meet each person's unique situation he draws from a range of methods and selects the approaches that best fit an individual’s needs and circumstances.

Warm and pragmatic in style, Joshua aims to create a collaborative environment where practical strategies and personal values work together. His practice is oriented toward helping individuals and families build resilience, improve communication, and manage the practical and emotional challenges that come with life transitions.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take actions that align with their values; it can be useful for stress, anxiety, and navigating life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and unconditional positive regard, giving people space to explore their experiences and find their own solutions under supportive guidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and teaching practical skills to change those patterns, which often helps with anxiety, mood challenges, and coping strategies.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Joshua works collaboratively with each person to determine what methods fit their goals, preferences, and the issues they want to address. He adapts techniques as progress unfolds so the work remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy with Joshua is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to access support from wherever the client is located in Maine. These options provide flexibility in how people communicate and practice skills between sessions, helping therapy remain consistent and practical for everyday life.
