James Herrington

James Herrington is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who focuses on helping people manage overwhelming feelings and life changes. He works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and anger. James aims to make the first step toward change feel possible and contained for a worried person seeking help.

He creates an open environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment. Sessions are practical and conversational, with an emphasis on listening first and then building tools together. James uses approaches that match what each person needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Over five years of practice, James has supported people through relationship strain, family conflict, grief, addiction concerns, and shifting life roles. He also helps with issues around self-esteem, intimacy, and coping with mood swings. His background includes work with trauma-related concerns and post-traumatic stress.

In sessions he may draw on Client-Centered Therapy to center a person’s goals and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift difficult thinking and behavior patterns. He also uses EMDR and trauma-focused methods when trauma is a central concern. James aims to help people notice small changes that improve day-to-day functioning.

People meet with him from Texas and internationally in English. He invites prospective clients to consider what they want to change and then take the next step in scheduling a session and beginning the matching process.

Therapeutic approaches and what online work looks like

James draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely, following a person’s priorities, and helping them set goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical steps to change unhelpful habits.

When trauma is part of the story, he may use EMDR and trauma-focused methods to process intense memories and reduce their day-to-day hold. These approaches aim to reduce reactivity and help people regain a sense of control over thoughts and reactions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, test methods, and adjust as needed so work matches what matters to the client.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling, fewer travel demands, and the ability to fit sessions into a busy day.
