Support & Therapies

James draws on a range of evidence-based approaches, tailored to what feels right for you. No two people are the same - the therapy follows the person.

Therapies Offered

CBT

Cognitive Behaviour Therapy

For understanding the connection between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Useful for addressing unhelpful thinking patterns and making lasting behaviour change.

ACT

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Increases psychological flexibility - helping you accept difficult emotions rather than fighting them, while committing to actions that align with your personal values.

DBT

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy

Effective for teaching skills to manage intense emotions, impulsivity, disordered eating, substance misuse and trauma-related struggles. Particularly helpful for strong emotional dysregulation.

NT

Narrative Therapy

When feeling overwhelmed or "problem saturated", this helps you separate yourself from your problems and rewrite negative or limiting life stories into empowering, positive narratives.

MI

Motivational Interviewing

If there's a sense of being "stuck", MI helps resolve ambivalence and increase motivation to move towards behaviour change - at your own pace, in your own way.

ST

Schema Therapy

A longer-form approach for those who want to go beyond coping skills towards a deeper understanding of themselves - why things are the way they are, and how to change them at the root.
