Getting to know James Synan

*Note that prior to the first session with the provider, LifeStance will require a credit card on file. James Synan sees patients ages 14 and above. Jim is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the state of Georgia. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Social Science Education, a Master's in Vocational Rehabilitation Counseling, and an EdS in Professional School Counseling, all from the University of Georgia. Jim has experience in K-12 public education, post-secondary education, and the mental health field. His work has involved children, adolescents, adults, and families, primarily in school settings. Jim believes therapy is often sought when a person begins having irrational thoughts and starts a downward spiral of negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. His desire is to help build a trusting, professional environment where the person can gain another perspective and recognize they are beginning a pattern of self-destructive thinking. Jim's theoretical orientation includes person-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care/therapy, and solution-focused therapy.
