More about James

  • Male
  • PACFA

I am a registered therapist with a Bachelor of Counselling and clinical registration with PACFA. I have experience supporting clients through challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, trauma, stress, and parenting concerns. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and focused on creating a safe space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment.

I understand how overwhelming life can feel, especially when navigating neurodivergence, mental health struggles, or major life transitions. My goal is to help you build clarity, confidence, and practical strategies to move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life. Taking the first step toward therapy is courageous. I’m here to walk alongside you on that journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
