About me
I am Jim Disantis and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker(LCSW) who has been a psychotherapist for 35 years.
I have worked in settings from child development to geriatric. I also have experience with inpatient and outpatient
mental health, both non-profit and commercial as well as private practice.
I have supervised other therapists among additional professionals.
Life has taught me that non judgmental based therapy can be successful and I
am able and willing to help you deal with issues by using well established professional methods.
This includes interventions of cognitive behavioral and solution focused therapy. I also help those who are in recovery.
Your spiritual and religious beliefs are "safe" to bring to the table with me if you choose to do so in a "guilt free zone".

Additional areas of focus: Addictions, Relationship issues, Family conflicts, Trauma and abuse, Anger management, Self esteem, Coping with life changes, Compassion fatigue
Clinical approaches: Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Existential Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy

Jim has been such a tremendous help in my life. He has helped me truly get better mental health wise by being non judgmental and accepting me for who I am thru the inevitable ups and downs in my life… I can confidently say that I get crushed less by the ups and downs since I ve been in therapy with Jim! Highly recommended

My therapy with Jim was a monumental experience in my life. Amazing what level headed advice can do for someone’s well being. When your life’s in turmoil it’s often difficult to see the most healthy path forward. That’s where Jim made a difference for me. He listened, he questioned, he challenged me. Everything I needed to start towards better mental health. His life experiences coupled with his education make him a top quality therapist. - Over my course of therapy I would be excited to speak with him weekly. Our conversations were a highlight for me. - If you’re looking for a wise therapist with well developed skills. Jim is your man.
