About Joshua

Joshua Borer is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, sleep problems, and relationship concerns. He uses a respectful, compassionate approach and builds treatment around each person's needs. Joshua encourages practical steps and honest conversation to move toward a more satisfying life.

With ten years of experience, he draws on several therapeutic methods to match what a person needs. Sessions focus on clear goals and skills people can use outside the room. Joshua works to create a calm, steady space where people can talk about hard topics without feeling judged.

He often combines mindfulness-based practices with cognitive-behavioral strategies to address anxious thoughts and sleep difficulties. Attachment-based ideas guide work on closeness, trust, and communication in relationships. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) tools are used to clarify values and take action even when emotions are difficult.

Joshua adapts pace and techniques to each person’s situation, whether the priority is coping with trauma, managing mood swings, or navigating divorce and separation. He also supports people dealing with veteran and armed forces issues, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and sexual assault and abuse. Work may include learning emotion regulation skills, improving communication, and planning for life changes.

If someone wants to explore support for self-harm thoughts, bipolar concerns, or career and self-esteem issues, Joshua offers a direct, practical style aimed at steady progress. He provides services in English and accepts international clients for remote care.

How mindfulness and ACT translate to online care

Joshua commonly uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice thoughts and bodily reactions without getting swept away by them; this can be useful for anxiety, sleep problems, and stress. He also works with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when feelings are strong.

Attachment-based ideas are sometimes part of his work to improve communication and repair trust in close relationships. Together these approaches aim to build awareness, practical coping skills, and clearer action plans rather than only talking about problems. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Joshua will check in about what feels helpful and adjust methods based on a person’s needs, goals, and preferences.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills in their day-to-day environment and bring real-life examples into sessions, which can speed up learning and make changes more practical.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
