More about James
- 10 years' experience
- Male
- LPC
A former ski instructor and lawyer, I became a mental health counselor to help others find their passions.
Mental health and addiction challenges can derail us from what is important and rob us of our truest selves.
Ten years as a clinician have given me experience in many therapeutic modalities and experience working with a variety of clients and circumstances.
I look forward to meeting you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
