I am a therapist/drug counselor/dating coach that is warm and caring. I start with developing an authentic relationship, then proceed to processing your feelings and thoughts with added behavioral tools. Helping you feel accepted, understood, and supported so we can explore and organize experiences and create new ways of coping. My practice is focused on treating young adults who may be facing challenges in their personal, social, or dating life. Therapy is one way of helping yourself not only with discovering the root causes of your behavior, but also to identify one's truth and inner reality.

I specialize in helping children, youth, and families facing various challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, and adjustment difficulties. My clients seek support in navigating life transitions, healing from past traumas, and building resilience. They want a compassionate space where they have the chance to speak bravely, and be heard, understood, and empowered. My goal is to equip them with coping skills, foster personal growth, and guide them towards a more hopeful and stable future. Together, we aim to create a positive impact and promote well-being in their lives.

I believe that the therapy relationship has the ability to provide healing, growth and change. Finding a therapist who helps you feel safe, supported and challenged is central to this process. My style is warm and curious as well as direct and challenging. I am an active participant in the process as we seek out the hard and stuck places that get in the way of balance and meaningful relationships.

I approach counseling from a practical, client-centered approach. I believe in meeting people where they are at, setting attainable therapeutic goals, and fostering intentional self-exploration. My experience with clients focuses on changing behavioral patterns, dealing with interpersonal issues, exploring new coping skills, and addressing symptoms of depression and anxiety. I have worked facilitating group therapy for people diagnosed as HIV+, as well as individual counseling for LGBT+ people. I have a history of working with people experiencing substance use from both abstinence and harm reduction approaches.

Are you struggling with difficult family dynamics or a lack of support from your environment? Are you finding that the tools that you have turned to cope, like substance use and avoidance, has taken hold of your life? Are you feeling exhausted or constrained by treatment that sees your experience as a disease and dispenses formulaic solutions? You are not your symptoms and you deserve care from someone who wants to join you, sees you as the multi-layered complex person you are and supports your vision of healing in mind.

James L. Colter's therapy focuses on the immediate need of the client. He understands that clients need to feel trust and safety before they share some of their most pressing feelings and emotions.

Additionally, he takes special care in personal awareness to provide clients with a safe environment that is free from judgement or bias no matter what cultural or status scenarios present themselves.

Before I came to New York, I was a lecturer in medical school and a neuroscientist. I was interested in the wonders of the brain from a scientist's point of view. My focus, over the last decade, has shifted from the brain to the mind. I think of psychoanalysis as a profound journey of understanding of oneself. Its purpose is to help people to understand feelings, behaviors, and habits that are troubling to them and to enrich their lives with new creativity, more fulfilling careers, and more meaningful relationships.

Taking this step is likely a daunting and courageous one for you. I offer a safe, supportive environment in which to help you deal with difficult problems. No matter what the struggles are, I will actively listen and help you build self-awareness so that we may find ways to help you cope with problems and live in a way you feel better about. I work with people from all walks of life who struggle with anxiety, depression, relational/marital issues, postpartum, parenting and substance use disorders, to name a few.

How can we make deeper changes when we are trying to manage unusual pain, or are just handling our day-to-day suffering? When we feel safe and accepted as we are, we can challenge ourselves to grow, and to encounter others in an authentic way. I aim to create, with you, a safe place where we get to know your habitual patterns of behaving and relating, and explore less familiar sides of you that may offer surprising possibilities for thinking, feeling, relating and living. How can deepening awareness enliven, balance, support, un-stick, sustain or change your life? Let's find out!

Sometimes at different times in our lives, we may be faced with challenges that momentarily derail us. That is normal. Whether it's because we're unhappy with ourselves, we've suffered a great loss or just because unfortunate things have happened, I believe therapy can help by allowing another person to bear witness to those issues in a safe non-judgmental environment and open the door to becoming a happier, healthier self. I am a licensed psychotherapist and psychoanalyst who can help you understand the issues that are troubling you or standing in your way of more fully experiencing life.

Psychotherapy is about change and growth, an endeavor that takes commitment and courage. Change can be painful at times and often scares us, so we rather stay within the bounds of old but familiar patterns of going about our lives. To have someone you trust to guide you through the change process can make all the difference. A genuine and supportive therapeutic relationship can help you take an honest look at your feelings and thoughts about yourself and your relationships with others, which will bring about the change that removes the barriers to a healthy and fulfilled life.

I specialize in getting you unstuck in order to clear emotional pathways to growth. I take tremendous pride in helping people like yourself, figure out who you are by helping you cope with feelings of anxiety, depression, and self-destruction. Through this, my client's are able to communicate effectively and feel close and secure in their relationships. I have a passion for working with women, most specifically women of color, to help you to understand and utilize all their feelings and expressiveness in ways that have laid dormant or underdeveloped.

I would like to provide you with the help and support needed to make the changes in your life that you deem important. My style of therapy is client centered and collaborative which allows for a unique therapeutic experience.
