Online sessions using evidence-informed approaches
James offers remote therapy that incorporates approaches selected to match a person’s needs and goals. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to explore values and to encourage committed action in the presence of difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is offered to examine links between thinking patterns and coping behaviors and to practice alternative strategies. Attachment-Based Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy are available when relationship patterns and emotional connection are central concerns.
These approaches are presented in a collaborative style, with the client and therapist working together to choose methods and set priorities.
