James Wells, LPC

James Wells, LPC, works with people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about their next steps. He helps those dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, and questions around identity. He offers a welcoming, nonjudgmental space for people to talk through what matters most to them.

He uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help clients notice patterns that cause pain and try different ways of coping. Sessions focus on building resilience, improving communication, and developing clearer personal goals. James aims to make therapy down-to-earth and doable between busy days.

James draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work, client-centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. He blends these approaches to match each person’s needs rather than relying on a single method.

With three years of experience and a Licensed Professional Counselor credential, he serves people in Alabama and also accepts international clients. He speaks English.

To get started, a prospective client selects the continue button on this profile, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to the therapist’s availability. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm current options before booking.

How his approach translates to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, stress, and decisions that feel blocked. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current connection patterns and can be useful for people dealing with trust, intimacy, or abandonment concerns. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the person’s own perspective and pace, offering a listening, accepting presence to support self-understanding.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. James works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person’s goals and situation. He may start with one way of working and adapt over time based on what helps most.

Because the biography does not specify session formats, confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, cut travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people take part from different locations. Licensed professionals can use these approaches effectively over distance, and James tailors his methods so therapy fits daily life rather than getting in the way.
