James Yates
Psychotherapy

​
Something isn’t sitting right - a relationship, a feeling, a pattern you can’t quite shift. Or maybe you’re just tired of figuring it out alone.
​
Whatever it is, it matters.
​
I’m a psychotherapist offering open-ended, depth-oriented relational psychotherapy for people who want more than symptom relief — they want clarity, connection, and a deeper relationship with themselves.
​
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”
― C.G. Jung
A collaborative, grounded approach
I work from a blend of psychodynamic and humanistic psychotherapy, which means we’ll explore not only what’s happening now - but how your past and unconscious patterns may still be shaping your present.
​
We start with three exploratory sessions. These are a chance to slow down, get clear on what’s going on, and see how we might work together. From there, therapy is guided by your pace, your needs, and your goals.
