Josie James, LPCC-CO (They/Them)
My counseling philosophy is grounded in the idea that you are the expert of your life. Every individual is shaped by the world around them, including family, friends, and experiences, and you are the center of that world. Using empathy and compassion, I hope to learn about your experiences and how they inform you as a person and the challenges that you face.
As a queer, nonbinary person, I believe in fostering a safe, affirming, judgment-free space for you to be yourself and process anything that may be on your mind or heart. Utilizing a person-centered, holistic approach, I aim to meet you where you are, learn about your experiences and the social and cultural contexts behind them, and stand with you while you navigate past and current experiences.
I also believe in using a collaborative approach where we can work together to create personalized goals specifically tailored to your needs and empower you to utilize your strengths to meet them.
