About Joshua
Joshua Flowers uses client-centered and existential approaches to help people find meaning and cope with hard times. He is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 13 years of experience, based in Colorado. Joshua writes plainly and meets people where they are to talk through stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and life transitions.
Joshua focuses on practical conversations and skill building. He uses mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and EMDR as ways to reduce distress and support change.
How Joshua works
Sessions often include attention to bodily experience and simple practices to manage mood and sleep. His background includes work with people in substance use programs, transitional housing for veterans, and community mental health settings. He has provided counseling in outdoor and residential programs as well as in independent practice since 2015.
This range of settings informs his down-to-earth approach to common struggles like anger, low self-esteem, and career concerns. Joshua also addresses specific issues such as post-traumatic stress, immigration stress, process addictions like gambling or pornography, and financial stress. He helps people who identify as LGBT and those coping with bipolar disorder to find clearer steps forward.
Language used in sessions is plain and straightforward to make ideas easy to use in daily life. Outside therapy, Joshua spends time running, biking, writing, and meditating. He recently lived abroad in Berlin and offers sessions in English, including with international clients when the relationship fits the licensing context.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following what matters most to the person. It helps people clarify goals, feel heard, and make everyday changes. Existential therapy looks at meaning, choice, and how life stages or losses affect mood; it can help when people are questioning purpose or facing major transitions. EMDR involves structured processing of distressing memories and can be used for trauma and post-traumatic stress when appropriate.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Joshua will talk with clients about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. He will collaborate to try methods that fit the person and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow a face-to-face conversation similar to in-person work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat or text-based messaging supports shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection between sessions, or those who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, travel, or busy family life while keeping the focus on practical steps and meaningful change.
