Joe Stevenson
I'm a skilled Clinical Social Worker, Army veteran, and professional Executive Consultant. My therapeutic clinical skills include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychoeducation, and Motivational Interviewing. I merge these approaches with social work principles, a high Emotional Quotient, and a dedication to ongoing professional development. I excel at identifying gaps, fostering change, and empowering clients to leverage their strengths effectively in therapy and leadership development. As a potential client, you can expect a therapeutic experience characterized by empathy, active listening, and a nonjudgmental approach. My expertise in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychoeducation, and Motivational Interviewing, coupled with a strong foundation in social work principles and cultural competence, ensures a personalized approach tailored to your unique needs. With a focus on empowering you to navigate challenges, foster change, and leverage your strengths effectively, I am committed to your growth and well-being.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In the first therapy session, clients can expect to discuss their reasons for seeking therapy, share relevant personal history and current concerns, and establish rapport as we begin to work together. I may ask questions to gather information, assess needs, and discuss goals and expectations for therapy.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strengths as a provider are empathy, active listening, cultural competence, a nonjudgmental attitude, strong boundaries, empowerment of client self-determination, flexibility with clinical approaches, strong clinical skills, and a drive for continued education in my field of practice.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Throughout my clinical career with the Veteran's Administration, DoD, and private practice, I have used CBT as my primary approach. As a clinician using CBT, I assess, formulate, and set collaborative goals with clients. I educate about CBT concepts, teach skills, use exposure techniques if needed, monitor progress, assign homework, and focus on relapse prevention, tailoring interventions to each client's needs for effective therapy.
Motivational Interviewing
Throughout my clinical career with the Veteran's Administration, DoD, and private practice, I have used Motivational Interviewing as my approach to developing a clinical relationship and encouraging change. As a clinician using motivational interviewing (MI), I employ empathetic listening, ask open-ended questions, and express empathy to explore ambivalence and enhance motivation for change. I intend to elicit client goals, highlight discrepancies, use reflective listening, and collaboratively develop change plans, fostering intrinsic motivation and self-efficacy for behavior change.
Strength-Based
Throughout my clinical career with the Veteran's Administration, DoD, and private practice, I have used Strengths-Based Therapy to focus on clients' strengths, resources, and abilities. I assess strengths, validate accomplishments, and explore positive qualities. I collaborate with clients to set goals that leverage strengths, build resilience, and foster empowerment. This approach emphasizes clients' capacities for growth and self-determination in therapy.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Throughout my clinical career with the Veteran's Administration, DoD, and private practice, I have used Solution-Focused Therapy to focus on clients' strengths and solutions rather than problems. I ask solution-focused questions, explore exceptions to issues, and amplify client successes. My goal as a clinician is to co-create goals, identify small steps toward solutions, and reinforce progress, promoting self-efficacy and rapid change through collaborative, future-oriented conversations.
