More about James

- BACP, NCPS
I’m an experienced UK-based therapist and trainer, working with global groups and individuals. With 10 years of experience, I offer integrative, evidence-informed therapy shaped by both humanistic and psychodynamic foundations. Clients often describe me as down-to-earth, warm, and straightforward — someone who brings clarity and calm to complex situations.
I’ve worked with a wide range of issues including anxiety, trauma, identity, relationship difficulties, and burnout, and I tailor my approach to suit your individual needs. Alongside therapy, I deliver wellbeing and psychoeducational seminars to diverse global audiences, and I’ve held senior clinical roles within both national and international organisations.
Whether you’re looking for long-term therapy or focused support through Single Session Therapy (SST), I aim to create a collaborative, non-judgemental space where you feel heard, supported, and gently challenged to move forward in a meaningful way.
It starts with your story.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
