Hello, my name is Noel James and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida with over 20 years of experience providing counseling and psycho-therapy. I have a dual master's degree in Mental Health Counseling and School Guidance Counseling.
My approach
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
My focus
I work with clients who suffer from all different types of psychological disorders, including mood and anxiety disorders, Psychotic and personality disorders, trauma, and stress-related disorders, Behavioral and sexual disorders.
My communication style
My style of communication is very open and free, but at the same time direct. Clients can speak freely in any communication style that works best for them without scrutiny or judgment. As a therapist, I encourage clients to be themselves and talk openly.
My journey to mental healthcare
My passion for studying psychopathology in addition to my interest in studying human behavior and the development of psychological issues is what attracted me into the field of Mental Health Counseling and Psychology.
My goals for you
After a clinical diagnosis has been made a treatment plan will be formulated, in which the client and therapist mutually agree upon the goals and objectives that are created in the treatment plan together.
My first session with you
Clients should expect to discuss the primary reasons for their enrolling and attending therapy sessions in addition to describing what they would like to accomplish and get out of the clinical process.
