Testimonials

 "After 2 years of bi-weekly sessions with James, the results have been nothing short of life changing. When I first met James I was in a very dark place, with zero self-respect or confidence in my abilities. James' ability to methodically reframe your thinking piece by piece and get you back on track is remarkable. Throughout my 2 years with James, he has always been available when needed and gone above and beyond to help me achieve my mental health goals. I'm now in a place where our sessions have ended, however I will keep coming back to James as and when needed. Thank you James, I owe you a lot!"  

 "I've recently started therapy with James. He's very approachable and grounding. Being new to therapy I was anxious to start however James has made starting therapy something to look forward to each week. We've spoken about many problems I've faced and I always feel better after having sessions. He's supportive and understanding. Would definitely recommend James! So far he has taught me to be kinder to myself and not always put others first. Thankyou!"  

 "I started seeing James in April of 2023 when I was in quite a bad place, and there’s no doubt that he massively helped my mental health over the six-month period I saw him. He helped me to deal with insecurities and anxieties that I already knew I had and helped me identify the roots of some of my issues. He is highly professional but also warm and very easy to talk to at the same time. I came to James hoping to improve my mental health and self-esteem and he is the first therapist who has done exactly that and more." 

 "Since not having a very good experience with 2 other counsellors I decided to try one more, James. I am pleased that I made that decision as I instantly felt comfortable and at ease talking to James from the very first call. We soon went on to have face to face appointments. There is no judgement from him at all. I highly recommend him." 

 "We came to James when our marriage was in crisis and had been for some time. We’d been talking about divorce and decided to try therapy as a last ditch attempt. I’m so glad we did. Using the techniques James taught us we’ve become a lot kinder to each other and have drastically improved our communication. James is kind, fair and we’ve never felt judged after a session. James has helped us both to articulate our deep rooted issues and given us actionable and achievable goals to work on in between sessions. We don’t leave sessions and argue about anything we’ve brought up and I only wish we had gone to see James sooner".

  My view of James must be similar to a person’s view of the surgeon who saved their life. I began therapy with James from a self-made hell. Early on in the sessions, I remember telling him that I had everything I needed to get out, but I was lost, and needed a map. James took me methodically through my thoughts and emotions, to my one core belief that was at the root of the behaviours that were ruining my life.  I worked with James for one year and was then able to navigate my life map with the skills and strategies we had worked on together. These changes from therapy are so deeply integrated into my thinking, and so my life, which has now been transformed. Thank you James! 

"I reached out to James at a very low point. My anxiety was at all level high. I had self doubt and was constant finding myself spiralling in my own thoughts. 

James helped me to think straight, really understand where my anxiety was stemming from and provided me with tools to manage my thought process.

Within a few sessions, I felt so much better and still use his tools months later if I find myself over-thinking or anxious."
