Denise James

I currently have a supervision slot available Thursdays 9am.

As a therapist: 

I am an accredited therapist with 38 years experience working with people struggling with all types of problem behaviours, traumas and challenging life events. Whatever the presenting problem, I am a therapist who is passionate about self-transformation and the living of the best life experience possible. As such, I also help clients rediscover Purpose and Realise Dreams.

During the course of therapy I provide, clients gain insight into their particular life and relationship patterns, and in so doing gain greater self-awareness & capacity for self-compassion. Additionally, clients are further supported as they find and try out more self-soothing and life-affirming ways of living, being & coping.

As a supervisor:

Since 1994 I have been supervising therapists from a range of theoretical modalities, workplace environments, learning institutions and private practices; therapists counselling clients from diverse backgrounds.

As a supervisee client, I create space for you to develop your practice organically & authentically, increasing confidence & competence in your skills set, experience and knowledge. I work with you in a framework of equality as one therapist practitioner to another, guiding and supporting your practice & directing you to resources, as and when needed. 

My supervision sessions are a transformative experience, where I work intuitively & at relational depth, creating  a safe space where we both can continue to learn, grow, and fulfil our potentials as practitioners and humane beings alike.

As an author: 

My first book Back to love, is a first generation British born African Caribbean Woman's healing journey from Adverse Childhood Experiences, in a sexist & racist-riddled society. My second book Inner Life Writes: A Manifesto for RE-Connecting to Love, RE-Newing Your Mind & Radiating Your Light, continues on the theme of healing, taking and championing healing in the realm  of  "collective responsibility." 

All sessions currently delivered online,  via Zoom, Teams, and the likes. 

Typically, the first session is to get to know about you, your needs and wants, your client work, and hopes for supervision, as well as find out what you can expect to receive from the type of supervision I provide.
