About Joshua

Joshua Borer is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, sleep problems, and relationship concerns. He works with people coping with trauma, intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem struggles, career changes, and bipolar disorder.

Background and approach

Joshua practices in Wyoming and speaks English. He keeps sessions practical and straightforward.

Conversations focus on what matters now and on small steps that fit into daily life. Joshua tailors the pace and goals to each person he meets, and he emphasizes respect and compassion during sessions.

Joshua uses a mix of approaches chosen to match the problem at hand. You may work on changing unhelpful thinking patterns, building skills to manage strong emotions, or exploring attachment patterns that shape relationships.

He also draws on methods that strengthen communication and day-to-day coping skills. Clients meet him for help after loss, during major life changes, or when anxiety and panic attacks make daily tasks harder.

He also supports people dealing with post-traumatic stress, sexual assault and abuse, and veteran and armed forces issues, aiming to restore functioning and hope. Joshua has ten years of experience as a licensed clinical social worker - LCSW.

That background informs a practical, person-focused approach. He encourages clear goals and regular check-ins so progress can be tracked and adjusted as needed.

Approaches for remote therapy and relationship work

Joshua blends the Gottman Method with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to shape online sessions. The Gottman Method focuses on improving communication and practical skills for relationship interactions, which can help with intimacy-related issues and everyday conflict. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches ways to accept difficult feelings while taking actions that match personal values, useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people build healthier ways of relating.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. If one way of working doesn’t fit, adjustments are made so sessions stay useful and relevant.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for full conversations and nonverbal cues, phone sessions can be a quicker check-in or easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging work for short updates, skill practice, or when typing is preferred. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to maintain continuity during life changes.
