Dr. James is incredibly supportive and has proven so helpful in walking me through whatever is present of mind on a weekly basis. He has offered new insight into old patterns and has helped me to reflect on behaviors that no longer serve me. I am becoming a more confident, self-actualized person thanks to Dr. James!
