More about James

  • 6 years' experience
  • Male
  • BACP

Hi there! I am credentialed in the UK with 6 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, relationship issues, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion but without judgement. I have a client led and person centred approach that underpins my practice. Other therapeutic approaches that I work with are Psychodynamic, Humanistic, CBT and Transactional Analysis (TA). TA has proven to be very helpful in providing people with a way to understand themselves better. Working with these models enables clients to be supported to find answers within themselves. I will tailor our therapy to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking time to look at our situation and our part within it can feel daunting and scary if we do it alone. I see therapy as a collaboration between myself and the person I am supporting. I would be pleased to go with you on your journey, wherever that may lead.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
