Joshua Siskin

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I have been working as a mental health professional for 14 years. My approach is solution focused. I am not primarily concerned with how or why your present challenge developed, but rather will assist you in finding a way forward. I hope to elicit and reinforce your positive attributes and competencies and help you to access your inner strength. My goal is that you should feel better about yourself and life in general with the completion of our session together. Your ability to change or improve your situation depends on your desire to do so. My job is to awaken that desire within you.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people ask whether therapy delivered online can truly make a difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.

Flexibility is a key advantage – individuals can connect with a therapist in the way that feels most comfortable, whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options often makes it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule.

Therapists who provide online care are licensed professionals, and clients may switch providers at any time if they prefer a different fit. For many people, online therapy provides an accessible route to consistent support and progress.
