Counseling Experience

Josh has over 12 years working with youth, families, adults & couples. Half of this time was spent as a therapist in an inpatient residential facility, which has given him a unique opportunity to see families at the ground level in their most vulnerable states. Josh has worked with teenagers, couples, families and young men/women for a myriad of reasons, but a summary includes: drugs/alcohol abuse, marital strife, academic struggles, blended family issues, adoption issues, infidelity, depression, sexual abuse and self-harming.

Therapy Approach

I believe in a holistic approach to helping, which includes (but is not limited to) relationships, spirituality, exercise, diet, sleep and recreation. I believe in looking at people as part of a system where everything is connected. I believe the soul is an important part of every person and needs to be taken care of. I believe it is important to slow life down so that one can really listen (whether that is listening to our soul, God or our conscience).
I believe most people can change if they want to change. I believe humility and forgiveness are central to healthy relationships and can cover a multitude of mistakes.

Education

Denver Seminary: M.A. – Counseling
University of Colorado: B.S. – Finance

I love spending time with my family in the beautiful mountains of Colorado. In my free time, I enjoy biking, fly-fishing, golfing, snowboarding and playing my guitar. I put a high priority on taking care of myself so I can, in turn, help others. I love being a husband and a father of two even though there are ups and downs.
