About Joseph
Dr. Joseph Lukas-Drouillard Hogan brings a client-centered approach grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to his work, drawing on two decades of clinical experience.
Background and approach
He combines practical, evidence-informed techniques with a compassionate, person-focused stance to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, and other life challenges. His training and long career include roles in inpatient psychiatric settings, substance use counseling, hospice and end-of-life care, and senior-focused independent practice in New Mexico and other regions.
Licensed as an LISW in Ohio and an LCSW in New Mexico, Hogan has worked in a wide variety of communities and clinical environments, including rural settings and military sites. He also integrates motivational interviewing to support clients facing ambivalence about change, and he attends to issues such as trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, sexuality, and compassion fatigue.
Hogan accepts international clients and offers multiple online session formats to increase accessibility. He emphasizes practical skills, self-compassion, and collaborative goal-setting as part of a respectful therapeutic partnership focused on each person's priorities.
Integrating CBT and Client-Centered Care Online
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and to teach practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental stance that helps people explore their goals and values while feeling heard and respected. Motivational Interviewing supports clients who are uncertain about change by clarifying ambivalence and strengthening intrinsic motivation.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then adapts methods over time to find the best fit. This collaborative stance helps shape a personalized plan that can include CBT exercises, reflective exploration, and motivation-focused conversations as appropriate.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to maintain continuity of care despite busy schedules or geographic distance. These formats support ongoing skill practice, check-ins between sessions, and timely access to licensed professionals while preserving the collaborative, client-centered focus of in-person work.
