Joshua Duboise, MS, LPC-S

My purpose is to leave a positive impact on the world, one interaction at a time. I am deeply committed to aiding individuals in their journey towards healing and enhancing their overall well-being through professional counseling. It is my firm belief that when individuals experience mental and emotional thriving, it contributes to the creation of better homes, workplaces, communities, and societies. Furthermore, I hold a profound belief in the innate capacity of every individual to change, grow, and heal, given the appropriate support, tools, and therapeutic environment. As a seasoned Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I hail from Akron, OH, and have been a content resident of Arizona for the past 8 years.

My Education

My academic journey includes a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy from Mississippi College and a Bachelor of Science in Theology from Freed-Hardeman University. Currently, I am a doctoral candidate pursuing a Doctorate of Education in Community Care in Counseling at Liberty University, reflecting my ongoing dedication to excellence in mental health care. With over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, I have carved a niche specializing in marriage and family therapy, as well as couples therapy. My expertise is underscored by my Level 3 training in Gottman Theory, an advanced certification that speaks to my commitment to providing the highest level of care and insights in relationship counseling. 

My Professional Journey

My journey as a counselor began in Tennessee, transitioned to Mississippi, and maturated in Arizona. My practice encompasses a broad spectrum of counseling services, including supporting individuals through depression, anxiety, grief, addiction, trauma, self-esteem building, communication enhancement, conflict and anger management, matters related to faith, and parenting. My holistic approach takes inspiration from my theological background, blending principles of faith with the complexities of mental health to offer comprehensive and empathetic care to my clients. 

In Addition to Therapy

My unwavering dedication to the betterment of individuals, couples, and families is a reflection of my blend of scientific expertise, spiritual depth, and compassionate understanding, essential in the realm of mental health care. It's crucial to note that while I adhere to the Christian faith, my counseling services are available to individuals of all faiths and backgrounds. I highly value and respect the diversity of beliefs and perspectives of each client, creating a welcoming environment for all.

My journey has been enriched by my service in the United States Army, where I had the privilege of demonstrating profound commitment and service in supporting others and selflessly serving my country. As an accomplished author, I have significantly contributed to the mental health discourse, offering innovative perspectives and enriching the field with my insights.
