About Joshua Siskin

Joshua Siskin has worked as a mental health professional for 14 years and centers his practice on solution-focused work. He emphasizes practical steps to help people move forward rather than spending extensive time on how or why a challenge began. He encourages the recognition and reinforcement of positive attributes and competencies while guiding clients to access their own inner strength.

Sessions are oriented toward immediate progress and practical outcomes, with the goal that clients feel better about themselves and life in general by the end of a session. He believes that the capacity to change is rooted in the individual’s desire to do so, and his role is to awaken and support that motivation as clients pursue meaningful change.
