Written on Jun 10, 2025 after therapy with James for 2 months on issues concerning relationship issues
James has been very helpful with myself. Simple having a person to talk to who is willing to listen and provide great feedback in what he can dissect from the situation. Therapy is a long process and he gives me some very interesting topics to consider when outside of the session. Things in which I haven’t thought about for years.

His professional approach (while still being personal) helped me become comfortable with him as I'm navigating a sensitive and deeply personal journey. In addition to our video sessions, the set of reflection prompts he provides every week allows me to explore my journey in a safe way.

Great service
Written on Oct 22, 2024 after therapy with James for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, parenting issues, and self esteem
James has been very helpful in discovering more about myself. He is thoughtful, compassionate and very understanding. The topics we cover are sensitive and he handles them with care and respect. I haven't felt belittled, judged or shamed by him and fully respect his ability to dig into our conversations with a level of sensitivity, whilst being unafraid to challenge my own views. I have been with James for several months now and I feel lighter and more confident in who I am, who I want to be and how I'm going to get there.

James is such a kind, calm therapist. He's a great listener and gives me hope that I can solve my money issues and resolve barriers from childhood that block my access to wealth. I highly recommend James to anyone who responds well to writing, reflecting, re-understanding, and rewriting your story in more empowering ways.

James is really good. They have asked me some really hard questions that help me really get deeper into my psyche and to see what’s lying underneath it all. They’re professional, gentle, empathetic, and curious. It feels like they’re invested in me and I really like that about them.

Written on Feb 20, 2024 after therapy with James for 4 months on issues concerning relationship issues
Every therapist is different and it's hard to write a review as what's right for me could be wrong for you. What I can say is James has given more several "aha! Moments" in the few months I've seen him and they have been quite impactful.
