About James

James Landy helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and problems with intimacy. He focuses on practical support for coping with life changes and emotions that make daily life harder. James is upfront and calm in sessions and aims to help people feel heard and understood.

James has three years' experience working as a counsellor. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to offer clear tools and steps people can try between meetings.

Background and approach

Sessions are collaborative - he works with clients to set small, achievable goals and to practise skills that can reduce distress. In the room he keeps language plain and explanations simple. Conversations often include looking at patterns, trying short experiments, and building strategies to manage worry or low mood.

He also addresses deeper issues such as attachment, abandonment and difficulties with commitment or trust. James supports people dealing with relationship hurt like infidelity, communication problems or separation. He also helps with feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame, and with behaviours such as hoarding or isolation that get in the way of everyday life.

Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged from within the United Kingdom or internationally. James works by appointment and offers a practical, steady approach for people wanting clear next steps and straightforward emotional support.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything James lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Practical approaches and online therapy options

James often draws on evidence-based techniques that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and building practical skills. Cognitive approaches look at how thoughts affect feelings and behaviour, teaching ways to test and shift negative thinking to reduce worry and low mood. Behavioural techniques use small, planned activities and experiments to change avoidance and increase rewarding experiences, which can help with anxiety, depression and isolation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. James will explore your concerns, goals and preferences and recommend techniques that suit you. That choice is shared so the plan fits your life and feels workable rather than prescribed.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when meeting in person is difficult. Phone sessions can be useful for a shorter check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing, need flexible timing, or want to work between scheduled sessions. These options aim to make therapy easier to fit into busy lives and different routines.
