Josh Whatcott

Drawing from a unique blend of law enforcement experience and evidence-based therapeutic approaches, Josh Whatcott, MSW, CSW, brings a wealth of real-world insight to his counseling practice. With 22 years of police service under his belt, Josh's transition to therapy was driven by a deep-seated desire to continue helping others in a more profound way.

Josh's therapeutic philosophy is rooted in positive psychology principles and practices. He believes in focusing on solutions rather than dwelling on problems, a approach that helps clients achieve lasting change. This forward-thinking methodology is particularly effective in addressing the complex needs of his diverse clientele, which includes public service employees, individuals, groups, and adolescents.

As a therapist, Josh leverages his background in law enforcement to offer a unique perspective, especially when working with first responders and public service employees. His personal experiences have shaped his understanding of the challenges faced by those in high-stress professions, allowing him to provide empathetic and targeted support.

Josh's practice is characterized by its versatility. Whether he's conducting one-on-one sessions with individuals, facilitating group therapy, or working with adolescents, Josh adapts his evidence-based approaches to meet the specific needs of each client. His goal is to empower clients to make positive changes in their lives, drawing on their own strengths and resilience.

When he's not in the office, Josh enjoys a rich personal life that includes spending time with his wife, two children, and his English bulldog, Mr. Gus. He's also passionate about riding his Harley, traveling the globe, and maintaining connections with his law enforcement family. These personal interests not only contribute to Josh's work-life balance but also inform his holistic approach to mental health and well-being.
