Graduated with a Masters in Clinical Mental Health counseling in May 2018.
The counseling process can be difficult. My work experience in helping professions, coupled with my education, and experience I have gained through different populations, have prepared me to connect in an authentic way. Finding meaning and purpose in our lives can be difficult to navigate alone. Having someone to help process the anxiety that life brings can be life changing.
Finding your coping mechanisms and awareness of your strength can help you connect with your emotions. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, existential angst, identity formation, communication issues, children, adolescents, couples, groups, probation, and prison populations.
Additional areas of focus:Addictions, LGBT, Relationship issues, Family conflicts, Intimacy-related issues, Parenting issues, Self esteem, Bipolar disorder, Coping with life changes, Attachment issues, Body image, Control issues, Dissociation, Emptiness, Family of origin issues, Forgiveness, Guilt and shame, Impulsivity, Isolation / loneliness, Life purpose, Men's issues, Mood disorders, Post-traumatic stress, Self-harm, Self-love, Sexuality, Social anxiety and phobia, Somatization, Young adult issues

Aaron has been amazing so far we’ve been working for about 2 months now and I can honestly say he’s changed my perspective on therapy as a whole. I was extremely reserved when starting but he’s got a way of making it very comfortable and doesn’t waste a lot of time I feel like I get a bang for my buck each session.

I love how Aaron is able to stay on topic and break down different points.

He seems personal and professional. 10/10 recommended.

Aaron James is not only one of the best therapist, he is also one of the best humans I have ever met. His approach to helping me is to listen to understand, question my statements, tie into relatable lessons and then come up with a plan to assist the issue moving forward. It’s the perfect design for me because I recognize solution-based problem solving. And his ability to correlate solutions with real life events in my life helps to reinforce my therapy. Aaron James deserves his flowers, he is the best.
