About Joe
Joe Bray is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with nine years of practice. He focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, and sleep concerns. He aims to make counseling straightforward and approachable for people who are worried or overwhelmed.
He creates an accepting space where clients can talk through their struggles without judgment. Sessions emphasize respect and listening first, then practical steps tailored to each person. He often draws on mindfulness and evidence-based strategies to help people manage difficult thoughts and feelings.
Joe works with issues that often overlap in everyday life, such as relationship strain, career stress, parenting challenges, and grief. He also addresses concerns like ADHD, compassion fatigue, and process addictions including gambling or problematic porn use. He pays attention to cultural background and the specific pressures some professions face, including first responder issues.
Therapy with him tends to be collaborative. He helps people identify values, set small goals, and practice new habits between sessions. Conversations are plainspoken and focused on what helps in daily life rather than clinical jargon.
Joe offers support for LGBT clients and people navigating intimacy or infidelity issues. He accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. To begin, follow the site’s Start Therapy steps to match and schedule a session.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small actions that match those values. It helps with persistent worry, low mood, and motivation problems by shifting toward meaningful activity rather than fighting thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical skills to change patterns that keep problems going. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Joe will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Sessions are collaborative - he listens to what helps and adjusts plans so work between sessions feels doable.
