My time working with James has been nothing short of transformative.  She has provided a space centered on compassion and acceptance that has empowered me to find a deeper connection to my own voice and experience. James' support and guidance have made me feel safe enough to explore the spaces within myself that can be challenging to tap into alone.

I have been working with James for five years on experiences ranging from childhood trauma; the process of moving from being a victim to a survivor of narcissism; being able to feel my feelings; self love and building healthier more mutual relationships; significant COVID anxiety and anxiety in general; the sudden death of my dad and wading through the grief; antisemitism and its impact on me, my relationships, work and world view; and more.

Along the way, James has fostered an environment where I am seen and heard that has allowed me to become vulnerable in a way that is needed for my healing journey.

I deeply appreciate that James knows when it is time to shift our approach as I am ready to bring about more shifts in the way I process, move through, and heal alongside these experiences.

About six months ago we started to integrate somatic experiencing, and while I was skeptical at first, I now feel how it is rewiring my nervous system and creating incremental shifts in how I approach everything. When I first started working with James, I thought I would be done and “fixed” in a year or two.

I now see that my journey has no set path or timeline, and I am grateful to have James with me to help guide me as I move through it and create more and more shifts.

Writing this testimonial mirrors the journey I’ve experienced working with James: challenging to articulate, occasionally uncomfortable, but deeply transformational. Reflecting on our work together has made me realize just how far I’ve come.

Her guidance has helped shape me into a version of myself that feels remarkably different yet still grounded in who I’ve always been. 

Through our work, I’ve gained a deeper understanding of my emotions and behavior, allowing me to take accountability, prioritize what truly matters, and trust my instincts—even when they defy explanation. James has also helped me let go of perfectionism, a shift I see in how I approach life—and even this review. 

I’m forever grateful for her compassionate and intuitive guidance. She strikes the perfect balance, encouraging growth and self-discovery without pushing me beyond my limits. Her support has transformed my relationship with myself and enriched my connection with others. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.
