About me
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Oklahoma, and I have been working in the field since 2015. I obtained a Master of Arts degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Central Oklahoma in May 2015. I have worked with teenagers struggling with issues such as low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideations, and poor social skills. My approach blends techniques from cognitive-behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy, and I am always researching new evidence-based techniques. I use a collaborative problem-solving approach to help my clients organize their concerns and brainstorm solutions. I can help you explore ways to make new friends, improve grades, and plan for your future. I will also help you develop creative ways to cope with stress and frustration.
I understand how difficult it is to seek help, and I'm proud of you for taking this big step. Well done!
I look forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Joshua Beavers. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
Joshua has been incredibly helpful during our time of need! He is kind, thoughtful, and has suggested useful tools for us to employ. Thank you Joshua!
Josh is great! We’ve been in active therapy with him for 2 years and it’s been a great experience. Highly recommend!
Joshia has helped me and my husband talk through a lot of disagreements and learned ways to communicate better. Thank you!
Thanks for all your help, Joshua. I feel like I've gotten my life back since we started talking!
He’s the best therapist I’ve ever had!
My therapist is very attentive, helpful, and welcoming. Would recommend him to anyone in need of support.
Great listener, willing to talk or go on tangents as needed, comes up with unique methods, also explains things in a way that is easy to grasp.
Joshua Beavers has been an incredible outlet for me and for my wife to find help. He is caring and compassionate. We have been dealing with my cancer diagnosis for over 3 years and Joshua was the first therapist who we could feel fully understood.
Joshua is great at problem solving and working out issues.
I look forward to working with Joshua in future sessions.
We highly recommend him!!
I have been working with him since April, within the 1st month he demonstrated a trustworthy demeanor thru his listening skills, knowledge base, concern & compassion, interest in my interests & superb professionalism.
Josh has been very empathetic and creative in his approach with our marriage counseling, he has helped bring new ideas and strategies for us to work with from the beginning of our therapy with him.
I asked for a therapist that would challenge my thinking and Joshua Beavers has done this very well. Asking questions not only to understand your situation, but also to help you reconsider from a different angle. He provides a calm supportive environment to try and understand what your concern is, and in my case actionable steps to help move in a healthier direction.
Josh is excellent!
He is great!
Josh has been great! We really appreciate his input and kind demeanor.
10 out of 10 from us! ❤️
Josh has been great, he listens to what I have to say and helps me get to the root of why I feel the way I do about things.
We love Josh!
Josh is a great therapist! He checks in on me, and makes sure that I'm comfortable at all times
My therapist listens to my concerns and helps me though things that sometimes I didn’t know I needed help though. His advice is on point and gets us thinking about different ways to approach certain issues in my life. I look forward to our weekly talks because it’s always nice to have someone to help work through difficult emotions.
He is a great listener and gives me advice that I use each and every day.
Joshua has been great. He has helped us hit our problems head on and refocus our attention on certain parts of our marriage. At first I felt like we weren't dealing with it, but in all reality we have been little, by little. We have even been able to add in other parts and he has congratulated us along the way on certain parts or things we have done that he wants us to know are really big deals. Sometimes I wish the were a bit more or a bit more deep, but this is the process, and his process and so far we are moving along well. Time is all it takes and a lot of talking!
He really listens and comes to the understanding of where my problems are stemming from. He makes me feel comfortable and to hope there can be better times ahead.
I love working with Joshua he helps me to feel validated and understood and always gives me advice and a much needed unbiased opinion to help me see my issues from other points of view he’s amazing and has helped me so much already
We love Joshua, he’s focused, kind and an amazing listener. He helps guide in a gentle manner and has been such a great experience for us.
Josh is open, compassionate, and insightful. He doesn't just listen, he hears you and helps you get to the meat of what you are saying. I appreciate his help and will be sticking with him for all my therapeutic needs. Thank you Josh!
He’s beer great. This is the best time I do therapy and Im so glad to have Joshua. He’s been helpful, he listens and addresses my concerns.
I felt like Josh listened intently and then came up with a great plan to get us to where we want to be. I wanted more for my son than to just talk and he is doing just that with offering strategies and ways to change his perspective when he can’t change his circumstances.
Joshua is really good at asking what YOU want to talk about each session & not just assuming he knows. I started talking about anxiety, but then in a different session threw him a complete curveball of talking about motivation & weight loss - he was able to quickly adjust and was great! He really knows his stuff!
I've worked with Josh off and on the past couple of years. His CBT in combination with his solution focued tactics are exactly what I was looking for! He has helped greatly!
So wonderful to work with Joshua!
Only one session in and we have learned how to ease the pain of a broken relationship. Our counselor showed us how to start having good times even in the bad times
Josh was an amazing counselor, and helped me so much! I’m so grateful to have had his expertise when I needed it.
He's an awesome counselor
Joshua has been amazing he’s understands my needs and is working well with me
I really appreciate the help that I’ve been getting from Joshua, he’s been a great counselor and he listens. He gives great advice and sends links to information I’ve needed. I think that anyone who gets him as a counselor would think so as well. Thank you so much Joshua for helping me so far! ^^
He is a good listener and gives advice on how to deal with the situations.
Joshua is a very helpful and insightful counselor. He listens to questions and problems and offers his advice on how to fix them. He is always kind and respectful and offers links to different resources or topics if you want to dive in deeper after the session. I am really benefiting from teencounseling.com and from Joshua.
Very understanding of all situations, precisely on time, and a very good marriage counselor.
I like the way Mr. Beavers does his therapy. It's very open, but he also makes me think about important questions with no pressure. He helps me feel heard when I realize things about myself and he helps me come to terms with those things too.
I've loved the concrete tools that Joshua has given me!
From the first session, Mr. Beaver has been easy to speak with and digs deep to get you thinking about the "whys" that plague our actions and thoughts. He provokes vulnerable conversations in a respectful way and appropriately brings back conversations for clarity and to look at them from different perspectives. He is calming, makes great eye contact, takes great notes, and solicits deep and vulnerable conversations.
Joshua creates a comfortable experience and makes you feel free to open up and say the things that need to be said. This has been a very healing and enlightening experience for my partner and I. We look forward to continuing our sessions with Joshua through the teencounseling.com platform. It has been well worth our time and this investment into our relationship is providing a greater return than either of us thought possible.
Joshua Beavers has been extremely helpful and is a wonderful counselor/therapist. He listens and helps me reflect. I cannot rave enough about him.
The best of the best! He’s so patient and listens when I’m trying to put my struggles into words. He always recommends great readings as well!
Joshua is very helpful and effective and very good at taking a neutral position in couple’s therapy in order to avoid making anyone feel alienated. Easy to talk to.
Josh is an excellent counselor who strikes a perfect balance between being human and remaining professional. He helped me work through several complex issues in my marriage, and also helped me work through my grief and loss involving a close friend. He is well-researched, responsive, and truly cares for his clients. I highly recommend him.
Joshua is a great counselor. He listens and gives helpful feedback. I highly recommend him for clarity on issues you're dealing with.
Great man. He is kind, and knowledgeable in his field. Sincerely wants the best for whomever he is working with.
After many years of experience in counseling, I have learned to treasure some counselors. Josh is one of them. Our sessions are a perfect balance of processing and problem solving, all while my concerns and needs are respected.
Joshua is a great counselor! He is thoughtful and makes you feel comfortable!
This is, by far, the best counselor I have had! I have had many, but Joshua is the best. I’m continually amazed how engaged he is in our conversations and seems to really “get me,” and I’m not an easy person to get to know. I like how he offers sound advice and practical actions that can be taken. He really seems to meet you where you are in life and help you improve from there. Been seeing him for a brief time but has already made huge improvements in my life. Definitely recommend!!
Joshua Beavers is extremely receptive and understanding. He offers a lot of insight for situations and and how to handle them.
It’s only been a few weeks since I started working with Joshua Beavers, but I can already see massive changes in the way I look at my life and my feelings. He is big on positive reinforcement and focusing on what’s working for me, rather than spending the whole time focusing on the negative aspects of my mental health. He is quick to respond, very thorough, and incredibly encouraging. I highly recommend him to anyone serious about recovering from mental illness.
Josh is sincerely the nicest human being I have ever encountered. He genuinely listens to our issues and concerns and always offers constructive ideas that could be helpful to us. He is very neutral in that he does not take sides in our issues but asks questions and helps to guide us through them. He is very attentive to our needs and very flexible with our schedule as well. I would recommend Josh to anyone.
I've tried some counseling before, but Joshua really knows what questions to ask and how to approach me to get me to let my guard down. He's been great!
Josh is amazing. He has helped my daughter work towards communication and sharing what she is going through. I would recommend Josh. He is a great listener. He has helped my daughter navigate through difficult issues. We appreciate him.
Josh is great, understanding and insightful. Enjoyed working with him on sorting out my issues.
Joshua has been great so far. I'm not a fan of counseling normally, but I can't deny the benefits of my sessions with him. I am genuinely feeling like a new person
Out of the diverse handful of therapists I've had sessions with, Joshua is the only counselor I've ever had who finds an effective balance between the extremes of "helpful, knowledgeable professional" and "just a person like me."
He is timely and well-worded with thoughtful responses, none of which have ever seemed mindlessly repetitious, irrelevant, or patronizing; The polar opposite of my past experiences in therapy in the best way possible.
Despite his fantastic use of the messaging features offered at teencounseling.com, I still suggest you opt for phone and/or video call sessions, as you will cover much more ground this way. Even if you normally have anxiety or social aversion surrounding these features as I do personally, I still highly recommend you at least give them a try. Not once in our conversation did Joshua's responses give me the impression I was being judged or scrutinized harshly, so I didn't feel the same tension I associated with face-to-face counseling. He does a remarkable job of making you feel at home.
In short, I couldn't have hoped for a better first experience with teencounseling.com.
We have only used him for a week, but he has helped us with our marriage counseling.
Josh is extremely helpful! He is a perfect match for my needs! He had extensive knowledge, checks in with me, offers a variety of ways to communicate, and has been really helpful through this rough time!
Great guy. He really is helping us out a lot.
Joshua is very professional, very helpful and seems to really hear what I write to him. Thank you.
