ABOUT JOSH VARNEY
Hi! I’m Josh.
I believe counseling is about more than learning coping skills—it’s about feeling understood, finding hope, and creating lasting change. My goal is to provide a safe, welcoming space where you can be yourself, explore what’s keeping you stuck, and move toward the life you want to live.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. My career began working with children with autism and later counseling children and adolescents facing emotional, behavioral, and mental health challenges in home and school settings. Today, I work exclusively with adults, bringing an understanding of how childhood experiences continue to shape our lives.
I help clients navigate anxiety, OCD, ADHD, trauma, and other life challenges using evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I’m also a Certified EMDR Therapist through EMDRIA, and I tailor therapy to each person’s unique needs. If you are looking for EMDR intensives, I can provide that as well.
I believe every person has inherent value and the capacity for growth. It’s a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they heal, discover their strengths, and build lives that feel more meaningful and fulfilling.
When I’m not in the office, you’ll usually find me spending time with my college sweetheart and our four children, playing guitar, or enjoying the outdoors.
