01About Joshua
Joshua Dyer helps people who are dealing with relationship strain, stress, anxiety, or major life changes. He meets individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward and focuses on practical steps that can ease daily life. Joshua holds an ME LCPC and brings eight years of clinical experience to each session.
He starts by listening and learning what matters most to the person in front of him.
Background and approach
Joshua treats the client as the expert on their own life and builds on strengths already present. Sessions are collaborative and aim to set small, achievable goals that fit into real routines. Joshua draws from a few evidence-informed ways of working rather than one fixed method.
He uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and make values-guided choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to identify unhelpful thinking and change patterns that keep problems going. Client-Centered principles guide his style, keeping the focus on empathy and the person’s own pace.
When needed, he may add skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. He adapts the approach so it matches each client’s needs rather than forcing a single model. Joshua practices in Maine and offers sessions in English.
He aims to help people build clearer communication, reduce distress, and find more meaning in everyday life.

04Online support
Practical therapy approaches offered online
Joshua uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that reflect what matters most to them. ACT can be helpful for anxiety, life changes, and finding direction when values feel unclear.He also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to stress or mood problems. CBT gives concrete skills people can practice between sessions to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Joshua will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and comfort level, adjusting techniques as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and exercises, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging works for quick check-ins or skill coaching between meetings. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy lives.
