About Joseph
Joseph Myrick is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Washington. He helps people who struggle with stress, anxiety, addiction, anger, depression, and life changes. Joseph aims to make starting therapy straightforward for someone feeling overwhelmed.
He talks through what matters most to each person and looks for clear, practical steps to reduce distress. Sessions focus on skills that can be used between meetings. Joseph treats concerns like grief, trauma, and low self-esteem with a direct, respectful approach.
Background and approach
With 19 years of experience, Joseph draws on methods that encourage change and build motivation. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that keep problems going. He also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find reasons to change and Solution-Focused Therapy to map small steps toward goals.
People working on addiction, impulse control, or anger often get concrete strategies to manage urges and rebuild routines. Those coping with relationship strain, parenting stress, or first responder issues can work on communication and boundaries. Joseph also supports people facing mood and personality concerns or process addictions.
Sessions are offered in English and take place online through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. He does not take international clients. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a time that fits their needs.

How Joseph Uses CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Work Online
Joseph commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot the thoughts and behaviors that fuel anxiety, anger, or low mood and then practice different responses. CBT is useful when someone wants clear tools to change patterns that cause distress.He also draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change. This approach focuses on building confidence and commitment rather than pushing advice. Solution-Focused Therapy appears in sessions as short-term goal setting, highlighting what is already working and planning small next steps.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video is useful for deeper conversations, phone can be easier when bandwidth is low, and chat or text works well for brief check-ins or between-session support. These options make it easier to maintain momentum and access help from wherever someone is located in Washington.
