Joshua Martin, LPC

Joshua Martin is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, licensed in South Carolina with seven years of professional experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, depression, and career concerns. He also addresses issues such as attachment and abandonment, communication and control problems, loneliness, and questions about life purpose.

Joshua uses straightforward conversation to clarify what matters most to a client. He focuses on defining goals and practical steps. Sessions emphasize a collaborative relationship rather than strict labels or promises of a single outcome.

His approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice patterns and try new behaviors. He also uses Client-Centered and Existential ideas to talk about meaning, values, and decision points. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone is unsure or ambivalent about change.

In sessions he listens for the specific ways stress and worry show up in daily life. He helps people break larger problems into manageable actions. The work often includes practicing small changes between meetings and checking what is or isn't helping.

Joshua recognizes how busy schedules can make therapy hard to fit in. He asks clients about their priorities and availability and helps make a plan that fits everyday life. He invites people to start by outlining what they want to work on and then shaping sessions around those goals.
