“I highly recommend working with Joshua. This was my first experience with therapy and it has been overwhelmingly positive. Joshua has exceptional attentiveness and is very easy to talk to - exactly what I was looking for in a therapist. If this is what you’re looking for too, give Joshua a try.”

Getting to know Joshua Silnik
Hello there! I'm Josh, a licensed mental health counselor with a Master's in Mental Health Counseling from City University of New York, Brooklyn College, eager to embark on our therapeutic journey together. Drawing from a blend of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Gestalt, and Psychodynamic approaches, I'm here to equip you with the tools to navigate your challenges while delving into your past and present experiences to illuminate what may be causing your struggles.
Witnessing my clients make strides towards growth is truly fulfilling for me. I deeply respect those who courageously confront their obstacles, recognizing that facing difficulties is a choice not everyone makes.
While I'm dedicated to pushing my own boundaries and confronting discomfort head-on, I'm not immune to getting stuck myself at times-and that's okay! Embracing a spirit of curiosity fuels my approach, propelling me to delve deeper into your story during our sessions.
The human mind never ceases to amaze me; it's a realm of infinite possibility and wonder. As a psychotherapist, I'm endlessly fascinated by its capacity to think, feel, perceive, and inspire curiosity-truly magical!
So, who wouldn't want to tap into this magic and embark on a transformative journey together? Let's get started!
**I do not accept ACA/marketplace plans**
What should a new client know about working with you?
My clients would describe me as validating, goal oriented, and personable. Our first session will start by you telling me what is going on and me exploring with you the history of this in a warm and validating environment. If the need arises, then I will provide you with an intervention to use outside of sessions. I am looking forward to working with you!

I have been a client of Joshua's for over 4 years. When I first started receiving therapy services, I was struggling with heartbreak and family problems. Joshua helped me process my emotions and has been very professional throughout all of my years. Joshua also is very culturally sensitive which is great because he makes me comfortable to tell him my thoughts as they really are. Joshua has helped guide my thinking to make healthier choices for myself instead of submitting to destructive thoughts and habits. He has helped me process my emotions for work-related stress, family ties, family problems, depression, anxiety, grief, suicidal ideation, and any problems related to my overall health and well being. Before I met Josh, I struggled to have access to continuous mental health care, there were frequent disruptions. It's been wonderful having the same therapist for several years. I give the highest recommendation to Joshua for his service and dedication to mental health!

Josh is great because he helps me understand where my symptoms came from but also helps me learn how to cope with them. I have definitely grown since I have started seeing him.

Josh is a no non-sense cognitive behavioral therapist that gets straight to the heart of the issue and tries to find a practical, efficient and behavioral form of therapy to quickly help you assess, address, and overcome your traumas. I wouldn't have imagined myself of being the person I am today, and I have Josh to thank for that.

Josh helped me work through issues that have been holding me back for years. I feel like I'm finally free to be who I truly am.

I really appreciate Joshua as a therapist. He is a kind, understanding person, who really wants to help you improve your wellbeing and make your life more enjoyable. His discussions and analysis on what is bothering you, trying to get to the root of the problem, and help you understand what your brain is telling you is really wonderful.
In my situation, I see it as a building process, trying to slowly piece together where the problem or problems lie. I certainly feel we are on the right track, and along the way, Joshua gives me tools to work on in between sessions. I HIGHLY recommend Joshua as a therapist.
