James was stellar. He was always prepared, he had a plan for me that was structured and to the point. I never felt like our time was wasted or that I had to "make up" things, I moreso go to grow with him as a partner. This year for me has been a ton of incremental emotional maturing and James has been an incredible partner in that. While I can't ever say he and I had one single breakthrough that changed everything, he gave me steady insights, thoughtful tips and constant re-enforcement to keep me on the right track. I would recommend him to any of my friends looking for therapy as a tool.

James is a great therapist. He has a very nice and calming presence. It is very easy to get comfortable with him. He listens intently and asks what my preference is before proceeding. I feel very seen and heard. I want to recommend him to everyone I know!
