James Lawrence

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes in their lives. My professional experience includes working with children, adolescents, adults, and families experiencing a variety of emotional, behavioral, and life challenges.

My clinical background includes work with anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, behavioral concerns, emotional regulation, relationship and family challenges, self-esteem, stress, and major life transitions. My approach is collaborative and individualized, drawing from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and family-systems approaches.

My approach is individualized rather than one-size-fits-all. I incorporate evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), trauma-informed care, and family-systems interventions based on each client’s needs. I have experience addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, emotional regulation, self-esteem, behavioral concerns, family and relationship difficulties, and life transitions.

During our first session, my goal is to create a comfortable, welcoming, and nonjudgmental space where you can begin sharing your story at your own pace. You do not have to come into therapy knowing exactly what to say or having everything figured out. We will take time to discuss what brought you to therapy, the challenges you are currently experiencing, and what you hope to gain from our work together.
