About Joseph Perroni
Joseph Perroni is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 12 years of clinical experience who blends existential-humanistic sensibilities with practical, mind-body-spiritual tools. He creates an empathetic, compassionate, and non-judgemental space where people and couples can explore meaning, purpose, and the root causes of their pain rather than focusing solely on labels or symptoms.
Drawing on a strength-based orientation, he helps clients identify and expand the resources they already possess so they can move toward greater wellbeing and self-actualization. His work emphasizes meeting emotional and relational needs across areas such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship challenges, addictions, parenting, body image, codependency, and life transitions.
In addition to his clinical training, Joseph brings lived experience outside the therapy room - he has worked as a world-class bodybuilder and personal trainer for 30 years, authored published work, and served as host and producer of the Rise Above Project. That combination of therapeutic training and a long history of coaching and creative projects informs a pragmatic yet reflective approach aimed at helping people create relevance and transformation in their lives.
As an LMFT, Joseph works with individuals, couples, and families to cultivate clarity, resilience, and a clearer sense of direction grounded in each person’s values and strengths.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with an Existential Focus
Joseph Perroni integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Existential Therapy into his online practice. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration - the therapist follows the client's lead to build understanding and self-directed growth, which is useful for issues like self-esteem, relationship struggles, and life transitions. Existential Therapy explores meaning, values, and personal responsibility, helping people confronted by loss, anxiety, or questions about purpose to clarify what matters and make intentional choices.
He also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for clients who benefit from structured tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and develop practical coping strategies for anxiety, mood concerns, and behavioral patterns. Selecting the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process - Joseph collaborates with each person to determine the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to work together through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access licensed professionals from different locations, while preserving the therapeutic focus on growth, insight, and practical problem solving.
