I can help you to build your confidence, pursue your passions, and create meaning in your life. My goal  is to provide a non-judgmental and safe environment, to ensure you are actively listened to and understood, and to provide you with empirically proven skills to accomplish goals and achieve desired change.  My most important goal though is to make sure that you are benefiting from your time with me.  I value building a trusting relationship with you, and I work very interactively and provide feedback to you in every session.  I have a general practice and specialize in relationships, depression/anxiety, addictions of all sorts, substance abuse, body image/eating issues, life transitions, bereavement, & trauma. I offer a free 30 minute phone consultation to give you the opportunity to discuss reasons for seeking therapy and to ask me any questions you have.  Please contact me via phone 415.244.5590 or email kjamesmft@gmail.com.
