Stephen Joseph, LMHC
Being fully alive, having a fulfilling life and healthy relationships is possible for all of us. But we can get in our own way and short change ourselves. Fear, guilt, shame, sadness, pain, past traumas, addictions and compulsions all contribute to stifling the possibilities of who we are and what we can be. I believe that a careful exploration of these obstacles can open us up to a more authentic self, full of life, courage and our true potential.
Practicing since 1989, I integrate psychotherapy with Emotional Freedom Techniques or EFT, Mindfullness and Emotionally Focused Therapy to help eliminate emotional and psychological blocks and get on with the task of living a full life.
Education/Training
Masters in Counseling Psychology, Lesley College, Cambridge, MA. Graduated in 1989.
Bio
I am a licensed psychotherapist, trainer, and consultant in private practice in Arlington, MA. I am experienced working with individuals, couples and groups since 1989, with a focus on helping others find their full potential and live conscious lives. My straightforward approach is helpful in creating a safe, non-judgmental atmosphere where self exploration and learning can occur.
Since 1998, I have become increasingly interested in the field of Energy Psychology, Mindfulness and role emotions play in our well-being. I am trained in Thought Field Therapy (TFT), EMDR, Tapas Acupressure Technique (TAT), Healing From the Body Level Up (HBLU) and Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). I have effectively incorporated these energy methods into my clinical practice. I currently lead workshops and train other therapists in the effective use of EFT and am co-founder of Energy Therapy Associates.
