Mr Christopher James
As an experienced psychotherapist, I believe that the therapeutic relationship between therapist & client is a crucial catalyst for positive change. With attributes such as warmth, empathy & emotional intelligence, I create a caring & non-judgmental space for clients to explore their issues. Drawing from my extensive experience, including specific expertise in working with the LGTBIQA+ community, gay males & addressing sex & relationship concerns, I help clients realise their capacity for inner peace & personal growth. I tailor my approach to each client’s unique needs by utilising appropriate therapeutic modalities, fostering a safe & confidential environment for their healing journey. Clients say they choose me because I seem kind & calm.
