James Groves, LCSW
About me
As a licensed therapist in Indiana, I bring 15 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate addiction recovery, relationship dynamics, career transitions, and personal growth. I specialize in addressing intimacy issues, self-esteem challenges, and workplace stress with a compassionate, evidence-based approach.
My therapeutic work focuses on supporting individuals through diverse experiences, including mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, sexuality concerns, and men's mental health. I create a supportive environment where clients can explore communication barriers, isolation, life purpose, and healing from guilt and shame.
I am committed to walking alongside my clients, offering guidance that empowers personal transformation and helps individuals develop deeper self-understanding. My approach is collaborative, non-judgmental, and tailored to each person's unique journey toward emotional wellness and meaningful change.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for James Groves. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
He's a wonderful therapist and has really helped my partner and I. We are no walk in the park! We are both strong personalities and it takes a strong individual to work with us and know how to address us individually and as a couple, which is so appreciated. He holds us accountable and (respectfully of course) calls us out when we need it. He's been able to reach my partner in ways I've never seen and I'm blown away by that. He's so relatable and down-to-earth which I find very helpful in a therapeutic setting. Highly recommend!!
