About Josh
I am a licensed psychotherapist, educator, and consultant specializing in trauma, family estrangement, loneliness, and complex relationship dynamics. My work centers on helping people make sense of painful relational patterns and move toward greater clarity, connection, and peace.
In addition to my clinical practice, I teach college level courses and consult with other therapists seeking deeper training in communicating complex psychological concepts into accessible information. I am also the Lead Moderator for Estrangement.com, where I help support parents and adult children navigating long term family disconnection through education, facilitated dialogue, and community based learning.
I work closely with Matthias J. Barker and have been mentored through years of clinical collaboration, consultation, and teaching. My work has also been informed by collaborating alongside leaders in trauma therapy, including Frank Anderson.
I believe good therapy is not about quick fixes or surface level insight. It is about creating space to slow down, understand yourself more honestly, and build relationships that feel safer, more grounded, and more meaningful. Whether you are navigating estrangement, trauma, or a sense of disconnection from yourself or others, my goal is to help you move forward in a way that feels sustainable and true to who you are.
My Work With
Family Estrangement
My work in family estrangement began in 2022, when Matthias Barker invited me to help create a support community for parents and adult children navigating strained or estranged relationships. After months of research and development, we launched Estrangement.com, which has now served more than 5,000 members.
As a lead moderator, I provide feedback and support in the community forum, help facilitate large group calls, and contribute to educational trainings and resources.
Through this work, I meet people at many different points in the estrangement process. Some are unsure why the relationship changed. Others feel stuck in grief, anger, guilt, or confusion. Some hope to reconcile but do not know what steps to take. Others are learning how to set boundaries, accept distance, or move forward while still carrying the loss.
Through this work, I have come to appreciate how complex family estrangement can be. Every situation is different, and there is rarely a single explanation or simple path forward. My role is to help people better understand their relationships, their experiences, and the choices available to them, rather than assuming what the right outcome should be.
This work matters to me because estrangement often affects far more than one relationship. It can shape a person’s identity, sense of belonging, and connection to an entire family system. I want people on all sides of estrangement to feel understood and supported as they consider what healing may look like for them.
