James Wood MA, LCAS What is the difference between seeing a “therapist” and having lunch with your best friend, or favorite family member? You can tell me EXACTLY what you think and what you need. What you think and how you feel matters. It is very important to me to respect and empower everyone to enable the confidence needed to make life changes. I approach therapy with a combination of humanistic and cognitive-behavioral modalities. I believe two people showing each other respect and caring equates to mental and emotional health. If you agree, we might be a good fit. We are going to create WINS in your life and relationships!
I have a Masters degree in mental health counseling, and specialty in substance abuse. I believe every client needs and deserves care specific to their person and stage in life. We will chart a path that leads towards the life you want to live.
I believe there are multiple opportunities throughout a person's life for significant change and growth. Right now could be one of those moments for you. I believe in creating wins in a client's life right away. My first goal is for you to walk out of my office feeling better than when you walked in. We can create that.
