James Taylor Counselling

As a Registered Social Worker with roughly 20 years of experience, I offer a compassionate, grounded space where you can feel truly seen and heard. I specialize in supporting individuals through trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, and interpersonal struggles. My approach is collaborative and client-centered, drawing from evidence-based modalities including CBT, EMDR, ACT, EFT, the Gottman Method, CPT, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. I also integrate mindfulness-based approaches like MBSR and MBCT to support healing and resilience. Whether you’re seeking growth, clarity, or relief, I’m here to walk alongside you with empathy, safety, and support. I look forward to learning more about you, what your goals are, and how I can support you in achieving them.

On your journey, you may be experiencing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, a career change, or a desire to make a fresh start or set new goals. Navigating transitions can be difficult, and it’s okay to ask for help along the way.

As your therapist, I aim to provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your goals, challenges, and opportunities for growth. Together, we will work through obstacles and uncover strengths, using a client-centered approach that focuses on your unique priorities and needs.

In my practice, I draw on a variety of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Narrative Therapy. This mixed approach allows me to tailor our work to your specific situation, whether you’re seeking to manage emotional difficulties, improve relationships, or navigate life transitions.

Making the decision to step out of your comfort zone and embrace change is a courageous act, and I’m glad you’re here taking the first step. You might still wonder, Is therapy the right choice for me? It’s completely normal to have these questions. Therapy is a collaborative process where we slow down, explore your inner world, and create space for emotions, relationships, self-identity, or past experiences that deserve to be seen, understood, and validated.

I deeply value authenticity, curiosity, and diversity, and my passion lies in connecting with people from all walks of life. Many of my clients are thoughtful individuals navigating self-doubt, perfectionism, cultural transitions, or a search for deeper meaning. I often work with international students and immigrants adapting to new cultures, individuals managing life transitions, and anyone seeking clarity or personal growth. It’s an honour to walk alongside my clients as they explore and rewrite their life stories.

While our past experiences, cultures, and environments shape us, it’s ultimately up to us to decide who we want to become and what life we want to live. I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can unpack your challenges, embrace your strengths, and work toward the life you envision. My approach is tailored to your needs, drawing on evidence-based techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), mindfulness practices, and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Together, we’ll develop strategies, gain insights, and foster meaningful change.

Whether you’re looking to manage overwhelming emotions, improve relationships, recover from past trauma, or simply find a space to reflect and grow, I’m here to support you. Taking this step is a brave act of self-care, and I’m committed to helping you achieve greater well-being and resilience. Feel free to schedule a free 15-minute consultation—I’d love to connect and explore how we can work together!
