Call me Jim. I’m a licensed therapist specializing in business professionals, pilots/flight crews, and emergency responders. My career as an Ocean Lifeguard Supervisor EMT and Police Officer shaped my understanding of how high-stakes environments of trauma, stress, and rapid decision-making are taking their toll on individuals and relationships.

Jim was relatable. He felt genuine in his approach and with his treatment. He spoke in a language that I can understand and made me feel at ease. He was very encouraging and was able to help me turn around my anxiety and my thought pattern.
