About Me
Joshua Sullivan, ACSW
PSYCHOTHERAPIST
Courage is a powerful virtue. In fact, Maya Angelou claimed that courage is the most important of all the virtues because without courage, you can’t practice any other virtue consistently. Joshua is passionate about supporting those finding the courage to do the hard things, whilst also healing the inner child. Lifelong growth, healing one's relationship with food and self, and providing a safe and comfortable space to explore are things he strives for in his sessions. Joshua is direct, yet warm, empathy driven, collaborative, and curious - he truly just wants to see you thrive and prosper through the therapeutic experience!
Joshua specializes in working with adolescents and adults struggling with eating disorders, anxiety, and OCD. He believes in a holistic, person centered, strength-based approach while also utilizing evidence-based practices such as Intuitive Eating, ERP, DBT, CBT, and ACT. He also implements mindfulness based modalities and HAES ideologies in the therapy space.
In addition to providing psychotherapy with Carter Psychotherapy Collective, Joshua works as an eating disorder therapist in higher levels of care. He has experience in multiple levels of care including residential, community mental health, partial hospitalization, and outpatient programs for teens and adults with eating disorders and other mental health concerns.
Joshua is culturally sensitive and LGBTQ+ affirming.
