James works primarily with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), an evidence-based approach widely recognised as effective for depression, anxiety, stress, sleep disorders and trauma. He routinely integrates Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) into his work, as this model complements CBT well. For clients working with past trauma or difficult relationships, James also uses Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), which is highly effective at helping people overcome troubling events that may underlie mental health distress.
