Great to meet you!

Dr. James Egede is a warm friendly and nonjudgmental psychologist who believes that all humans can change given their willingness and opportunity to do so.

My approach to therapy

Dr. Egede's approach to Psychotherapy is eclectic. But mostly rooted in psychoanalytic and psychodynamic ideas. Simply put the ideas suggest that if individuals are helped to change the way they think and feel they will make better choices and improve their life conditions. For couple and intimate relationship issues Dr Egede uses the powerful Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) skills and techniques that espouse a theory of close adult relationships in a manner that no other theory does.

What you can expect from me

A huge sense of relief that they are now in good hands to have their issues effectively addressed.
