Hi there, I'm James!

I help clients with stress, anxiety, LGBTQ+ issues, trauma, grief, and loss. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, tailoring our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling life takes courage.

My focus

I work with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I'm experienced in providing services specific to our unique needs. I also have experience working with military families, providing individual and couples therapy.

My approach

I create a safe, supportive, non-judgmental space where you can share without concern for being judged. I provide unconditional positive regard while also challenging negative thought patterns that hold you back. I'll partner with you to provide support, psycho-education, and new tools to help you move forward.
