About Joe
Joe Bray is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with nine years of clinical experience. He focuses on practical support for everyday problems and aims to make therapy approachable and clear for people feeling overwhelmed. He works with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and addictions.
He also helps people coping with trauma, grief, sleeping or eating struggles, and career or parenting stress. Joe often supports those facing multicultural challenges, first responder concerns, and relationship or intimacy issues.
Background and approach
Joe uses straightforward, person-focused methods in sessions. He listens first, then helps people set small, manageable goals. Sessions mix talk, skill practice, and experiments to test what works in daily life.
He draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered approaches alongside mindfulness and emotionally focused work. These methods are used to help people notice what matters, change unhelpful habits, and build better ways to cope. People who appreciate calm, practical guidance tend to do well with his style.
Joe aims to make progress feel doable rather than overwhelming. He works collaboratively to adapt tools to each person’s life and preferences.

How his approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that fit their values. This approach is useful for anxiety, anger, and life transitions where decisions matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior by practicing specific skills and doing short experiments between sessions, which can reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathetic, non-judgmental relationship so people feel heard and can explore what matters most to them.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Joe treats the choice of method as a collaboration, trying approaches that match someone’s goals and adjusting based on what helps. He encourages clients to give feedback so techniques can be adapted to fit daily life and personal preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and teaching of skills. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or to fit a break at work. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, written skills practice, or when someone prefers typing over talking. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
