Getting to know James E Williams Jr
If you can change the way you think, you can change the way you feel. This is the basic premise for overcoming life challenges that seem insurmountable. My strategy is to assist you in developing a goal and plan to make that happen by using evidence-based strategies proven to help you achieve your goal.
No one person is the same, so I utilize what works best based on the challenge. I have over 10 years of experience treating many different challenges such as trauma, anxiety, depression, marital conflict, and life adjustment disorders, serving an age range from 5 to 85. I am certified in various treatment modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and the Gottman Method of Couples Therapy Level 1 & 2. I hold a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Texas A&M University.
No matter the life circumstances you find yourself in, I look forward to meeting you and working with you to find out how I can help.
What should a new client know about working with you?
The initial session is an opportunity to meet with you, understand your world, and what brings you in. In the first session, our goal is to identify your vision of what you would like to achieve and develop a plan to achieve that goal.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

James has been a breath of fresh air. He’s very attentive and recaps what you’ve said to make sure he understood correctly. The two sessions I’ve had the first was a getting to know you and the second one he provided documentation on a method to help with difficult situations. I’m looking forward to continuing to work with him.

I've been working with James for a few months and am making great progress. James is a great listener and has helped me identify and highlight some of the sticking points that I needed help identifying. He provided simple solutions, tips, and tricks for negative self-talk. He also helped me set appropriate boundaries in several areas of my life. He is positive and encouraging, and overall it's been a wonderful experience, and I can't thank him enough.

He’s authentic, warm, open minded, solution, coping skills and most of all caring and you guys should give him a raise if it wasn’t for him I probably would have never be able to get out of this black hole in my life called depression

James, is down to earth and never makes my partner and I feel wrong for the way we show up in the relationship, but instead he pushes us to see where we can communicate and do better as he teaches us the tools we need to maintain healthy relationships. We look forward to and are excited to participate in our bi-weekly sessions!

James is very solution oriented. I picked him at the height of depression as I wanted to feel out of my comfort zone. And he has challenged me to be a better version of me.
