Professional statement

James is a Associate Licensed Mental Health Counselor who has a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling as well as a Masters degree in Consciousness Studies and Transpersonal Psychology. James has experience working with adults and children in various settings, including: teaching in public and private schools, life coaching, and Enhanced Outpatient Services.

James naturally came to this work after a personal search for existential meaning and the search for how to live a fulfilling life in today's world. James did not find all the answers, but did find the pursuit of one's personal truth is what fills life with meaning, and no one else can take the step toward your truth, but you. As such, his approach toward therapy emphasizes the meaning found right now, in the present moment, and learning how to listen to your personal truth and communicate and act from it, so you can experience your life for what it is, meaningful.

James' work is trauma-informed, client-centered, and can include IFS, Mindfulness, CBT, Adlerian therapy, and more.
