I am so happy to (finally!) have found a therapist who (a) seems to understand me, and (b) gives me genuinely helpful (life-changingly so) advice. Cannot recommend highly enough, and thanks so much to Josh and the team at BH.

More about Josh

  • 13 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPC

I love doing therapy with individuals who muster the courage to do the work. I have been doing just that for over 12 years.

You can rely on me to take the time to build trust and listen to your fears and concerns. Rapport is important to me because it sets the tone for an honest appraisal of who you are and where you truly want to be. My desire is for my clients to feel supported in their purpose. My experience includes individuals and couples from all walks of life. I have an affinity for those struggling with issues of gender and sexuality.

A session with me is a safe place to explore religious abuse, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, or addiction. Most of my clients enjoy the time I spend developing tools for emotional communication and boundary setting. I hope that I can explore with you the places that need healing and growth while developing an overall sense of purpose. I work intimately with people who hope to remove the fears and barriers that stand in the way of their freedom - their dreams.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
