Brenda James, LISW
About me
I am licensed in Ohio with 15 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, bipolar disorder, depression and many other disorders and problems that are often difficult to cope with alone. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. So, if you're reading this, you're already making positive steps towards getting to better! I am here to support and empower you in that journey. I look forward to meeting you already!
