James McLaughlin

My communication style

I'm warm and welcoming. I believe everyone deserves compassion and a helping hand. I can also be direct and challenging. My goal is to create an environment to encourage growth and change.

My journey to mental healthcare

I helped populations cope with life's challenges such as trauma, addiction, grief, depression, and anxiety. My specialty is helping people take control of the narratives of their own lives, to write the future they want to tell. In my spare time, I enjoy running, wine tasting, and playing with my dog.

My goals for you

In short, we work on what you want! This is your time. Nobody knows you better than you. Since you likely have some goals that you want to get out of therapy, we'll start there and work backward toward what's standing in your way, what got you to where you are, and how you can move forward.

Our first session

This is where we get to know each other, and we put together a plan to get where you want to go or heal what you want to heal. First sessions can be intimidating, but we'll go at a pace that makes sense and is comfortable.
