Joshua Zisholtz

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW

No human is broken. We are all, simply, the logical conclusion of the sum of our total experiences, operating in the exact way the human system was intended to operate, by adapting.

In a relational, humanistic, and conversational style, we will work to piece together your narrative in a way that connects the total sum of your experiences to your present thoughts, feelings, and behavioral patterns. Through focusing on development of the ability to maintain internal validity and positive self-regard, individuals will actively reduce self-shame, self-judgement, and self-harm, in order to find the healing, growth, and change they are hoping for.
