About James

James Davis is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in Utah who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and relationship concerns. He also supports people dealing with grief, self-esteem struggles, parenting strain, ADHD, and major life changes. He uses a straightforward, empathetic style in sessions and focuses on practical steps people can try between meetings.

James earned a master’s degree in mental health counseling and a bachelor’s degree in psychology and human development.

Background and approach

He has about 10 years of experience working in clinical settings and community care. That background gives him a range of ways to approach problems without relying on one fixed method. In sessions he leans on attachment-based ideas and client-centered listening to understand how relationships affect feelings and behavior.

He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people test thoughts and build new habits. When trauma is present, James incorporates EMDR-style work alongside talking therapies to reduce the intensity of painful memories. His style is collaborative and practical.

He listens first, then helps people choose concrete steps to try. Meetings are paced to match each person’s comfort and goals, with attention to coping skills and emotional processing. People who prefer clear explanations and a mix of talking plus action often find his approach helpful.

He encourages ongoing feedback so the plan can change as needs evolve.

Online support

How approaches like attachment work online

Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions; online sessions give space to talk through those patterns and try new ways of relating. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood; this helps clients clarify goals and notice changes over time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and suggests experiments to test unhelpful beliefs and build different habits.

Choosing the right method is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs and goals, then suggest approaches to try. That plan is revisited often so methods can change if something isn’t helping.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Video calls let people work face-to-face without travel. Phone sessions can be a good shorter option or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, homework help, or steady contact between longer sessions. These options aim to give flexibility while keeping the focus on meaningful progress.
