Welcome
Hello, my name is James. I am a qualified psychotherapist and counsellor accredited by both the BABCP and BACP, practicing since 2017. I work with adults from across the UK over video calls. I understand that the decision to embark on therapy can be a difficult and worrying one and that finding someone with whom you feel comfortable working is vital.
​
I am experienced in working with a wide range of problems (stress, burnout, anxiety, trauma, depression, comorbid and complex presentations) and have a particular passion for and specialism in helping clients overcome anxiety and self-esteem difficulties.
​
I believe that every one of us has the potential to find fulfilment but that our unique life experiences can sometimes make this seem unreachable. My practice offers clients a warm, confidential, and non- judgemental space to identify, explore, and work towards worthwhile change.
I work with clients to help them gain understanding of their thoughts, feelings, and actions and reconnect with a sense of and self- worth.
As an Integrative Psychotherapist, I am able to work with a number of therapeutic approaches (person- centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy being core to my approach) but specialise in CBT. I seek to adapt and tailor the work that we would do in the most personalised way. As such, I am able to employ a wide variety of resources (ideas, theories, exercises) to help clients with their unique experiences.
If you are interested in seeing if we are the right fit to help with your particular troubles, please don't hesitate to reach out and we can book a short consultation free of charge.
