Getting to know Joshua Hardwick
Hi, my name is Joshua Hardwick, and I hold a clinical social worker license specializing in evidence-based therapy and mental health. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Washington. My primary approach to therapy consists of supportive listening and introducing interventions and coping skills supported by research to improve wellbeing, life satisfaction, and daily functioning for people experiencing mood disorders and trauma-related symptoms.
My approach
I believe the individual is the expert on their life and experiences, and only after empathetic listening can I understand how to help meet their specific needs. Therapy is a collaborative effort requiring willingness from the client and skills, competency, and experience from the therapist—qualities developed through continuous training and years of clinical practice. Theoretical approaches in my practice are largely based on strength-based, cognitive behavioral, and psychodynamic theories.
My focus
I have worked with a diverse group of adults experiencing mood and trauma-related disorders that require individualized treatment plans and interventions. Recovery is not one size fits all, a lesson refined over years working with clients from varied ethnic, racial, political, religious, social, economic, and sexual orientation/identity backgrounds.
My communication style
My goal in therapy is to be empathetic, understanding, and direct. Being vague is rarely helpful, but tact and care can be used when speaking directly. Therapy requires change, and honest discussion about change is essential to improve quality of life. I foster change in cognition—helping clients recognize and shift unhelpful negative thoughts—and in behavior that keeps them stuck in unproductive routines.
