About me

Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with nearly four years of experience. My goal is to work with you as you journey to a more fulfilling life. I have worked with individuals like you with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, addiction, grief, relationship issues, and much more.

My approach is grounded in respect and compassion, and I firmly believe in walking alongside you as you navigate the changes you want to make. Sometimes, all it takes is a supportive, empathetic presence to help us see life's challenges from a different perspective.

You are a unique individual with your own set of experiences, strengths, and goals, and I'm genuinely excited to embark on this therapeutic journey with you. Together, we'll explore how we can harness your uniqueness to create a path forward, tailored specifically to your needs and aspirations.

Remember, growth is a continuous process, and I'm here to provide a safe and supportive environment for you to flourish. Life can indeed be tough, but with the right guidance and collaboration, I believe you can achieve the positive changes you're seeking.

Let's work together to discover your full potential and find the path that leads you to where you want to be. I'm here, ready, and glad to assist you every step of the way.

After being with James for a year I would strongly recommend him. I have grown so much since starting therapy with James.

Such an understanding therapist with a calm and caring demeanor. James is such a patient and great therapist, his methods for working with OCD are very helpful. He is very understanding and kind which makes him easy to talk to especially if you’re first starting therapy. Highly recommended!
