James is a phenomenal therapist. He has helped me define and work through so much pain in just a few weeks and I look forward to an ongoing journey of healing with him. I've spoken to quite a few therapists/counselors/psychiatrists over the years and I'm so grateful that I can finally say I've stopped searching.
