About me
My name is Josh and I am a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Florida for over the past 21 years. I earned my undergraduate degree in psychology from Clemson University. I earned my graduate degree in mental health counseling from Nova Southeastern University. I have extensive experience working with addictions and recovery with couples, as well as using couples therapy to help individuals with mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and adjustment disorder. I also have experience working with adults suffering from a history of abusive relationships (physical, mental and sexual), as well as PTSD that results from these abusive histories. I prefer using a collaborative, solution-oriented approach, as well as using cognitive behavioral therapy techniques to help my patients work through their problems in an effective, time-efficient manner. Couples therapy provides individuals the opportunity to grow and learn together and help each other through difficult times.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Joshua Plantz. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Josh has been really great we feel comfortable with him he’s very professional and we even sometimes hold off on hard conversations and have them with Josh listening so we can hold each other accountable. I would recommend Josh to anyone that wants a great experience. Perks that he funny and easy to talk to.
Great support through tough times
Josh is the perfect therapist for me
Josh truly has been a benefit to our lives and a great force for good in our marriage. He is professional and wonderfully relatable, I feel every session has been valuable with constant takeaways. He has helped us communicate better and has given us both hope that we will continue this journey toward increased caring, patience, love and understanding.
Very sweet and knowledgeable!
Great experience. Josh has been great at getting through my husband and make him really understand where the issues and frictions come from and how to actually work through them. We love our weekly sessions and it just flows so naturally I would 100% recommend Josh for a different but extremely efficient couples therapy.
I feel Joshua has all the experience and is very accurate, neutral and sympathetic person, who is helping me gradually.
Only 2 sessions but also remarkable progress. Josh is an amazing human being who listens and gives feedback which is insightful and thought provoking. Hopefully he'll publish a book one day!
Changed my life
Gets right to the issues and is willing to call either party out on behaviors or thinking patterns that may be causing issues. Really shows effort in getting through to each person in a professional yet no non sense approach that doesn't feel detached and just business as usual. Highly recommend
Amazing!
Josh is an expert in what he does. He listens, pays attention, and guides me through working through areas I struggle with in a healthy and constructive way.
Josh is a great counselor. We're dealing with relationship related issues and are on our 2nd week of therapy. Josh has been very attentive, responsive and understanding. We really value his focused approach which is helping us resolve specific issues we're facing and we look forward to continuing the therapy with him.
Josh is an extremely relatable and supportive counselor. He's good at adapting his methods to match your specific needs and personality. Working with him has been a pleasure.
Joshua has been consistently supportive and helpful, offering sound advice and strategies.
He is great! Highly recommended.
Josh was very helpful and caring. I appreciated his straight forward attitude and approach and felt he did a great job. He was very willing to make himself available.
Josh is very patient and understanding and makes a great effort to respond quickly! I feel he is very knowledgeable as well as relatable. So thank you, Josh!
Josh has already helped my relationship in a monumental way, and we’re literally just getting started together. I look forward to exploring more skills with Josh and watching my life improve even more. It’s a blessing to have found him as my trustworthy and caring guide.
Josh is fantastic. Very personable, down to earth and easy to talk to. He gave us some really solid suggestions and advice that we used to get ourselves back to a better place, both emotionally and physically. He still checks in on us even though we no longer need weekly sessions, just to let us know he is here if we want to talk about anything.
Very happy with the counseling received! Joshua is very knowledgeable, listens well, and is considerate.
We are so sad to stop seeing Joshua. We always look forward to our meetings but after a couple months, we are doing so well that we don't need his services anymore. He is wonderful, funny, a great listener and offered us practical advice- which we loved. Thanks so much.
Joshua is wonderful! He is very knowledgable and responds quickly to all methods of contact. He is respectful and non judgmental. He brings an energetic and positive attitude to all of our video session along with messages. We both feel very lucky to have been paired up with him because in just two weeks we are already making progress. We both would highly recommend him!
So far so good I really like my counselor. He seems to really understand me
Joshua is a great listener, patient, dependable, and provides great advice.
