More about James

  • 4 years' experience
  • Non-binary
  • BACP

I'm a registered integrative counsellor with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). I have a range of experience, from anxiety, depression and trauma, loss and bereavement, to LGBTQIA+ exploration. More areas I'm happy to work with can be found below.

I will begin our sessions together in a client-centred approach, giving you the respect, empathy and positive reguard that you deserve, with a warm and friendly environment to relax. As I am trained integratively, my approach is flexible and is able to change to meet your needs as a client, offering a mix of person-centred, solution-focused or cognitive behavioural forms of therapy.

It takes bravery and courage to reach out for a helping hand, and I look forward to working with you.

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.
