Getting to know James McMahill

The fundamental purpose of therapy is to create and facilitate change. Whether you are beginning or resuming the pursuit of healthy change in your life, I would love to join you in that effort. As a Marriage and Family Therapist and Supervisor with 15 years of experience, and a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of San Diego, I have had the privilege of serving a wide array of clients. I specialize in collaborating with you to decrease the impact of trauma, severe depression, anxiety, and psychosis. Regardless of the context that brought you to initiating this search, that intentional decision is a commendable step toward creating healthy change. I have spent much of my career serving and leading in agency work, and therefore have seen the results of systemic and societal trauma in its purest form. I proudly serve those described as "high acuity," as well as those who need help with nagging doubts, sticky insecurities, or outdated patterns. I implore you to take that next step into self-care, healing, and change. My pledge is to honor your story, your process, and to facilitate change.

What should a new client know about working with you?

More than anything, I want you to feel the bloom of realization that permanent, positive change is not only possible, but highly likely, with your effort. I want you, as my client to feel optimistic from the first session (with understandable human doubts) that your instincts of "something feels off and I need some help with this" are worthy of care, curiosity and exploration. Expect to be engaged, seen, heard and respected without judgement or cynicism.

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.
