I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with over 20 years of experience providing counseling and psycho-therapy. I have a dual masters degree in Mental Health Counseling and School Guidance Counseling. I have worked with clients suffering from wide ranges of issues including depression, anxiety, psychotic disorders, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and ADHD along with sexual disfunctions. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse and criminalization.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

Being completely new to therapy, I wasn't sure what to expect. Therapy is something I've always wanted to explore but wasn't sure how to get started or what exactly I was even looking for. Noel has been great to work with, he shows a wonderful level of care and provides great feedback and perspective to our discussions. I couldn't recommend him more!

Noel James is the best therapist I've experienced ever. He listens, asks clarifying and probing questions that challenge me to look deeper beyond my feelings. He helps me utilize my own autonomy and empowerment to process. This is important because it does not create a dependency issue between the client and therapist. Noel is truly about healing work. I am grateful to find Noel James.
