Joshua Dyer, LCPC

Joshua Dyer is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) who offers supportive therapy for people navigating relationship strain, caregiver stress, and big life changes. He works with issues such as anxiety, depression, addiction, parenting strain, anger, and ADHD. Joshua focuses on helping people build on their strengths and move toward the life they want.

He believes clients are the experts on their own stories. Sessions are collaborative and centered on the goals the person brings. Joshua listens for what matters most, then helps identify practical steps to reduce stress and improve communication.

Over eight years of practice, he has guided people through family conflict, separation, and shifts in roles like becoming a caregiver. He uses a mix of approaches so the work fits each person rather than forcing one style on everyone. That flexible use of therapy methods keeps the work grounded in day-to-day needs.

Joshua draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thinking and on acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and take action. He also uses client-centered and dialectical skills to improve emotional regulation and relationship communication.

Sessions are offered in English from his Maine practice. People who want to try therapy start by selecting the Start Therapy button and completing a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

Approach choices for online and remote work

Joshua commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, value-driven steps even when feelings are hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Joshua will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then choose methods together. That collaborative process helps match skills and practices to what feels useful in everyday life.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around caregiving and work by reducing travel and allowing sessions during short breaks. It can also let people use phone-only check-ins when bandwidth is low, or focus on skill practice and homework between meetings. Licensed professionals often adapt skills-focused approaches like ACT and CBT to remote sessions so the work stays practical and goal oriented.
