It's a new year but the those old issues never get resolved or go away. Personal issues can be a challenge even if we consider it a new year or season. If you're having issues with past experiences, trauma or some other life issue, my practice could potentially help. I provide services in an up front and honest manner. My approach is to have active dialogue, not just sitting, typing, and waiting for something to happen. This means focusing on a growth mindset, a willingness to heal/change, being realistic, and genuine engagement in therapy. Learning to be responsible for yourself is part of change.

Most of my clients have used alcohol or drugs as a crutch over the years and that has progressed into a daily habit that becomes a way of coping with life. This eventually leads to excessive drinking and drug use and can cause chaos in a person's life...and the lives of the people that love them. My goal is to help you develop coping skills that allow you to deal with life's difficulties without picking up a drink or a drug. Life can be so much better when you are not tethered to a drink or a drug in order to get through your day.

Hi, I'm James. I believe every person has the innate wisdom and capacity for change — our trauma buries it, but it doesn't destroy it. My work is precise and research-grounded: calm the nervous system first, then process what's been driving the symptoms, and rewrite the story we tell ourselves. I'm going for a nervous system reset. I specialize in multi-day trauma intensives — concentrated in-person work that produces real movement. Complex trauma, C-PTSD, relational trauma, addiction. If you're done managing and ready to reclaim your life, I'd be honored to do that work with you. Call for a free consultation.

I specialize in helping men who struggle with isolation, feelings of anxiety and depression, blocks to intimacy, addiction to pornography, lack of male friends, a feeling of being lost or without a deep sense of purpose, or feeling numb and disconnected from life. As men, we are socialized to keep everything to ourselves, which makes it hard for us to admit when we're lonely, hurting, and in need of support. Many of us grew up with fathers that were absent, abusive, or detached from us emotionally, leaving us without a respectable model of masculinity and without much direction in life.

You may be carrying the weight of past experiences, constant stress, or self-doubt that keeps you from feeling like yourself. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck, exhausted from holding it all together or struggling to find meaning after loss, trauma, or burnout. They’re high-functioning on the outside but anxious, disconnected, or unsure how to slow down. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Therapy can help you step out of survival mode, make sense of what’s happening, and begin to feel grounded again.

Does it feel like you are constantly "at war" with your own thoughts? I work with individuals who are exhausted by chronic overthinking, high-functioning anxiety, and the relentless inner critic. You may spend your days measuring your worth against others or rehearsing conversations that haven't happened yet. This "comparative mind" doesn't just cause stress; it creates a profound sense of disconnection from your own life and your most important relationships.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with therapists of a specific gender. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
