About Joseph

LMHC, LCMHC in Florida with 21 years of experience, Joseph Setchel helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar challenges, and intimacy-related issues. He works in English and practices with a mix of approaches chosen to fit each person's needs. Joseph’s first paragraphs focus on practical, observable change rather than labels or promises.

Joseph earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Music from Stetson University and a Master of Science in Clinical Psychology from the University of Central Florida. After a two-year post-Master’s internship and several years of applied work, he received his Florida license as a mental health counselor in 2007. He has continued in the field for over two decades.

His sessions are guided by what the client wants to address. He uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow the person’s priorities and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change patterns of thought and behavior. He also draws on Existential and Mindfulness therapies and psychodynamic ideas when they fit a client’s situation. Solution-Focused techniques are often used to develop concrete next steps.

Joseph emphasizes clear, measurable progress. Clients can expect work on insight, coping strategies, decision-making, and practical problem solving. He names choice, authenticity, honesty, and cultural awareness as core values that shape his practice.

To begin, a person chooses the online therapy options button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules a first session. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and priorities. The therapist listens for what the client wants to change and shapes sessions around those aims, which can help with relationship concerns, life transitions, or issues like grief and self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills to manage anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress. Techniques include identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioral experiments to test new ways of acting. Existential Therapy explores meaning, values, and life choices; it can help when people face major life changes, career questions, or questions about identity and purpose. Finding the best approach is part of the work. Joseph will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first and when to shift strategy based on progress, goals, and preferences. This is a joint process that balances practical steps and personal reflection. Practical benefits of online sessions include easier scheduling and fitting appointments into a busy life, shorter check-ins when time is limited, and options that may reduce travel time. The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can support the same kinds of CBT skill practice, client-centered discussion, and existential reflection that are used in person, adapted to the session format you choose.
