“My wife sent me links to 3 different Psychologists. I was immediately drawn to James. It was his mustache. It's freaking awesome. He looked like he was right out of Tombstone. I love that movie.
So I made an appointment and was able to meet James a few days later.
My first session went very well. He made me feel comfortable and relaxed. He listened to everything I said (which was a lot) and gave me a lot of insight.
I definitely will be seeing him again.
This is the way! ”

What should a new client know about working with you?
I am very patient and supportive with clients who may be feelings increased levels of stress. It is very important to me that I have an accurate understanding of each of my clients. To gain this understanding, I need the help of my clients to guide and teach me about themselves. While I am very supportive and create a comfortable low stress therapy environment, I am also seeking the most effective treatment approaches that will be comfortable for my clients and bring them the skills they need to reduce the stress they are facing.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My first step in working with clients is to gain a good understanding of them and the problems they face. Next, I introduce my clients to cognitive-behavior therapy which is an approach that makes sense and is easy to understand. This approach has two goals. The first goal is to observe the thought processes to determine if thinking is realistic or not. Unrealistic thinking makes understanding our problems more difficult and so we look at thought patterns that are irrational and we change them to be as realistic as possible. The second goal of repairing unrealistic thinking leads to effective problem recognition. Once we can realistically understand the problems we face, we can then begin to implement effective coping skills to solve these problems. People who are deemed successful in life often have the ability to think and recognize the problems they face realistically which then leads to the application of effective coping skills. My goal is to give my clients these tools so that they can be an effective therapist for themselves.
