Do you find yourself avoiding intimacy, feeling anxious in social situations, or struggling to trust others? Do past wounds make it hard to feel safe, connected, or fully present? No matter how much you try to move forward, self-doubt, frustration, and emotional exhaustion keep pulling you back. You overthink interactions, blame yourself for what happened, and feel unworthy of love. Trauma anniversaries bring flashbacks, nightmares, or moments of feeling on edge. You are not broken, and you don’t have to keep carrying this alone. Healing is possible.

In valuing his role as a therapist, James tries to be a guide and advocate, recognizing that clients are experts in their own lives and act as the main drivers of change. He views building on the strengths that the client already brings to the table as an integral part of the process to institute lasting change. James also believes that the strength and quality of the therapist-client relationship is a critical piece of the therapeutic process.

I’m sure you’ve been asked this a thousand times… “I’m so impressed—how do you do it?” On the one hand, that question is so satisfying to your inner perfectionist. But on the other, you’re silently screaming that the pressure of trying to do it all is starting to crush you. Your perfectionism shows up in your work. You find yourself working way more hours than your colleagues. It might show up in your relationships. Have you ever gone into a tailspin because you wanted to plan the perfect event for a loved one? Or it might show up within yourself—how you eat, dress, exercise, or maintain your home.

I believe YOU are THE EXPERT of your own life. One's perspective often limits one's view of problems and blocks one's intentions, desires, and dreams. I come alongside you in your journey and guide you as you discover that problems are not permanent attachments but issues which can be transformed into manageable catalysts for change. Change requires a plan which involves steps leading to reachable and measureable goals. Have oppressive feelings of helplessness and victimization become the story of your life? Would you rather optimism and hope? Then I invite you to Rewrite the Story of Your Life.

Feeling unmotivated, worried, hurt, angry, and/or exhausted but don't know how to take the next step toward change and need help? Oftentimes we need someone to listen to us, reflect, and challenge our negative thinking, while supporting/acknowledging our feelings as we work through an issue. Other times, there are deeper issues from our past that hold us back from being the confident, engaging person we want to be, and this is where I can help you help yourself. You will do the work and I will be your guide.

We often know where we are stuck and what is causing distress — but not how to go about fixing it. My job is to help you get where you are trying to go, to help you figure out what's getting in the way and to help you connect the dots and see the bigger context. People work in therapy in different ways so there is no one formula for everyone. In general, I am interactive, thoughtful, solution focused and believe in people who are working on themselves.
