Joseph White, LPCC, LMHC

Joseph White is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida. He focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and trauma and abuse. He speaks English and works from a straightforward, practical stance that aims to make therapy feel understandable and doable.

He uses short-term, goal-focused strategies alongside a client-centered listening style. That means sessions often begin with the issues that matter most now, and then build small steps forward. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking, and Motivational Interviewing to support change when people feel stuck.

White earned a Master of Education (M.Ed) in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Cleveland State University in 2018. He has about eight years of clinical experience working with adults, adolescents, and children. His background includes supporting people with depression, anxiety, anger, adjustment to life changes, trauma, abuse, and substance use.

In sessions he balances practical tools with time to talk and be heard. He may use problem-solving and brief interventions when quick relief is needed, and explore patterns and feelings when deeper change matters. He works with clients to set clear, achievable goals and track progress.

People who want straightforward, active therapy may find his approach helpful. Those interested in starting can use the site flow to answer a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist offers empathic attention and follows the client's lead to help clarify concerns and goals. This approach is useful for people who need a steady, respectful space to talk about trauma, grief, or life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It uses practical exercises and simple skill-building to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and address addictive behaviors. CBT often includes homework-like practice to help new habits stick between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Details about session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people use video or phone options to match comfort with technology and bandwidth, while focusing on the same goal-setting and skill practice used in face-to-face sessions.
