My boyfriend and I love meeting with James. We decided to seek premarital counseling prior to engagement and found James has helped us feel confident and excited in choosing to take the next step. He has helped us strengthen and deepen our relationship, and provided us with the skills to navigate all kind's of conversations. He introduced healthy habits to incorporate in our routine, both as a couple and individually, to be better people/partners for each other. We are so happy we found Ascend Marriage Therapy, and we would highly recommend it if you are considering.

I can’t recommend James highly enough. He’s not the kind of therapist who just nods along and tells you what you want to hear—he tells you what you need to hear. That takes real character and skill, and not every therapist is willing to do it. Most will tiptoe around tough truths because they don’t want to rub people the wrong way, but James understands that real growth requires honesty, even when it’s uncomfortable. There were times when I didn’t like what he was telling me, but looking back, those were the moments that mattered the most. He challenged me, pushed me to see things from different angles, and ultimately helped me become a better version of myself. If you’re just looking for someone to validate you no matter what, he might not be the right fit. But if you truly want to grow, to face reality, and to make real progress, James is the therapist you want in your corner. Therapy isn’t always easy, but with James, it’s always worth it.

James was exactly what I needed when I needed him. He showed true empathy for my situation and helped me find my way through a tough situation. Highly recommended.

100% recommend. James is the first therapist that both my husband (veteran & LEO) and I have felt comfortable with. After 25 years of marriage, stresses of business ownership, homeschooling 3 daughters, and nearing an empty nest, our relationship was in need of a fresh start. Every session with James felt productive and like we knew what direction we needed to go in. James is able to gain understanding quickly and provide non-bias feedback, never giving us a feeling that there was fault blame placed on either of us. James has been a huge part of the massive improvements we’ve made in our marriage. It feels like day one again.
