Hi, I’m Josh Barker, a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC), and my mission is simple: to walk alongside you as you face life’s hardest moments and help you move toward real, lasting change.

Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, self-doubt, relationship conflict, substance use, or simply feeling stuck, you do not have to go through it alone. I provide a space where you can feel safe, understood, and supported as you work through what is holding you back and begin creating the life you want to live.

I work with both adolescents and adults from all backgrounds and identities, and I bring deep respect for each client’s unique story. I strive to see the world through your eyes and help you make sense of your experiences with clarity and compassion. Wherever you are in your journey, I am here to meet you with empathy, presence, and care.

While I bring modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Person-Centered Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy, I believe therapy should always be tailored to your needs, values, and goals. My approach is warm, collaborative, and adaptable, always focused on what works best for you.

Therapy with me is not just about talking. It is about gaining clarity, building confidence, and developing the tools to thrive. If you are ready to take that next step forward, I would be honored to support you.
