Choosing a therapist is an important event. The professional you decide to work with may be with you through some of the most important changes in your life. It is therefore important to make the decision with care. Some practitioners believe that the process of positive change begins during the search for help. Finding the right person to help you can take some time and thoughtful exploration. My approach to therapy places a great deal of importance on the level of comfort and between client and therapist. I therefore offer a free initial consultation to see if we are a good match.

A therapist's training, credentials, and experience are a key part of your search. Finding someone who has skills specific to your areas of need, together with rigorous training from reputable experts, is a good place to start. You can find out more about my experience, training, and credentials by clicking on the "About James" tab above. There are many qualified therapists out there but ultimately, finding a good personality match is essential. The therapy will be most beneficial if the therapist you choose is someone you feel safe and comfortable with.
