Joshua Rubin

Hi, I’m a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) who provides therapy for adults and teens navigating life’s challenges, changes, and complexities. My approach is collaborative and compassionate — I believe that healing and growth happen best in a space where you feel safe, understood, and genuinely supported. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, relationship difficulties, or simply feeling disconnected or overwhelmed, we’ll work together to help you regain clarity, confidence, and direction. I specialize in helping clients manage perfectionism, imposter syndrome, burnout, and the pressures of maintaining balance in everyday life. I’m also deeply passionate about supporting members of the LGBTQ+ community and those exploring gender identity, transition, or sexual orientation. For teens and young adults, I offer a supportive environment to navigate the unique challenges of growing up, identity formation, and finding one’s place in the world. My therapeutic style draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based approaches, and Strengths-Based and Trauma-Informed care. This means our sessions will be tailored to your needs — sometimes focused on practical tools and strategies, other times on reflection, insight, and deeper emotional understanding. Ultimately, my goal is to help you reconnect with your authentic self, build healthier relationships, and create meaningful change that lasts. You don’t have to have everything figured out to start therapy — just a willingness to show up and take the next step. Together, we’ll work toward helping you feel more grounded, confident, and at peace with yourself and your life.
