Great to meet you!

Hello. My name is Michael James, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Georgia with over 15 years of experience. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work in various roles, including as a psychiatric director, trauma therapist, COO, and tele therapist. I specialize in working with adult individuals and couples dealing with ADHD, trauma. relational problems, addictions, anxiety, and mood disorders. I have also worked with numerous international clients.

My approach to therapy

I know each one of us is on our own journey. While I am comfortable using CBT, DBT, EMDR, and Attachment Therapy with individuals and utilizing the Gottman method with couples, I try to tailor the treatment approach that can best help you to achieve your goals. I have found in over a decade of working with a diverse group of people, that human beings struggle with many of the same struggles and I try to use that learned experience to help you on your journey.

What you can expect from me

One of my greatest strengths is the ability to build rapport with a diverse group of people. I would expect you to feel comfortable with me and feel like you were making progress in your life goals. I am solution oriented and want you to get the maximum benefit you can with your investment of time and money.
