About Joseph Almeida

Hey there! My name is Joseph Almeida and I’m licensed in two states. I’m a LMHC in Florida and have my LPC Provisional License in Pennsylvania. Most of my experience has been with youth, teenagers, and college students. I received my Bachelors Degree in Sociology from Florida Atlantic University. I then received my Masters Degree in Mental Health Counseling at Palm Beach Atlantic University.

My style of counseling is very person-centered which allows the people I counsel to have freedom and time to express what they are going through and I enjoy walking with them and help supporting them regain the helm of their life back. I have a heart for getting to know people’s stories and helping them discover what brings them joy and also how to solve the challenges they face in their lives.

“Joseph is a great listener who uses thoughtful questions to encourage self-reflection and accountability. His approach may feel challenging at times, but it helps you develop your own clarity and solutions, which makes it very effective.”

“Joseph is great! He saved me and my wife’s marriage and we are so thankful!!”

“Words can’t express how great this has been for me and my wife!”

“I really enjoy talking to Joseph. He listens and seems genuinely interested in me and is very knowledgeable both on the clinical and spiritual aspects of therapy.”

“Great listener and extrapolator of feelings and thoughts”

“He is an excellent therapist gives me good advice”

“Joseph is awesome.”

“Super helpful at listening and understanding what I'm going through”

“Joseph is an extremely good counselor, friend and in a sense brother. In some way I believe he knows what I’m going through besides reading the journals I write. Cause whether we know it or not everyone in one way or another goes through trials, chaos plus turmoil. We all need someone to relate to us.”

“Joseph Almeida has been a relief to talk to, I have some life time problems which I know are too hard for me to handle, let alone any therapist to solve, Joseph listens to me, gives me good feed back and has helped keep me grounded. I don't feel like he is pandering to me and just telling me things I want to hear.”

“Joseph is a kind and understanding individual who knows in certain ways what it’s like to be us.”

“he is lovely and listened but sometimes he seems a little tired during sessions so I don't feel a comfortable to open up cause he may be too tired to listen otherwise he's real good”

“I have had many counselors I did not like. I absoluty love Joseph. He's easy to talk to and understands my struggles”
