Hello! Welcome to BetterHelp. I am so glad that you are here. My name is Shoshanna Joss. I am a Licensed Clinical Therapist in the state of New Jersey. It is not easy to reach out for help and then try to find the right match in a therapist. You have made a great first step!
I have worked as a social worker for over 11 years. I completed my master’s degree from The University Of Michigan and my undergraduate degree from Temple University. I have done extensive work with families, couples, and young adults. Much of my experience is with grief therapy, supporting those who are experiencing transitions in their lives (a common occurrence in many of our lives), caregiver support, anxiety, depression, chronic illnesses, and trauma. I am certified as a trauma informed therapist. I am a strengths-based counselor. I believe that every one of us has the ability to grow and change. Often, we all need help realizing our true potential. I believe therapy is a partnership. I want to work on goals together that you want to achieve. Additionally, I have a certificate in Alternative and Integrative Medicine. I am able to incorporate mindfulness and meditations into our sessions. I believe that you should leave a therapy session feeling supported but challenged. We all have stories and beliefs that we have about ourselves, often challenging and confronting our stories leads to positive change.
I check my emails twice daily. I am confident we can find a time to work together. Thank you for reading my profile and I would love the opportunity to work with you!

Shoshanna has listened to me rant and rave about every little aspect of my life but never fails to offer a genuinely caring response to all of it. I've never tried any form of therapy prior to Better Help, and with Shoshanna as my first counselor ever, I already am starting to feel like a much more positive, forward-thinking version of myself! Thank you so much Shoshanna!
