James is a great counselor who is patient, skillful in providing insight and a safe space to be heard. He embodies the idea that the result of going through therapy is determined by how much you are willing to put in the work to help and deal with your issues. He is a wonderful guide, but you have to be willing to make the first step, to dive deep to understand and uncover all the things you were unaware of.
James is an experienced counselor who is able to establish a level of comfort right away. He is a great listener and understands when to ask the right question at the right time. He is very supportive and offers solutions based on his profound expertise. I can strongly recommend working with James.
James Gallagher is a great counselor!
