I love James so much! His advice and guidance are my primary source of support. From the moment I opened up about my struggles I saw someone who instinctively was able to guide me and offer the best medical advice for my situation. He was also able to detect my OCD tendencies which eventually led me towards this ongoing journey of understanding my own OCD and learning how to manage it in the best way possible. I’m a female on my late twenties with very low self-esteem, and I gotta say, committing to therapy and speaking to James on a weekly basis has improved my self worth quite a bit. I still have a long way to go but I have been feeling better than I’ve ever felt before starting therapy. Thanks James!!!
