Welcome! I'm glad you're here!
Life doesn't come with a roadmap, and sometimes we all need someone to help us navigate the difficult moments. Whether you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck or simply ready for a change, therapy can be a place to slow down, gain clarity and reconnect with yourself.
I completed my graduate education at Grace College in 2021, earning a master's degree in clinical mental health counseling. I have worked in several treatment settings, including community mental health, school-based therapy and online intensive outpatient.
I strive to create a welcoming, judgement-free space where you can be your authentic self. Together, we'll explore what's bringing you to therapy, identify your strengths, and develop skills that support meaningful and lasing growth.
Hey! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who values peace, authenticity, and creating a safe space for healing. As someone who loves exploring, learning, and finding meaning in life's layers, I bring a calm, empathetic, and thoughtful presence to every session.
Welcome ! I’m grateful you're considering therapy and taking this important step toward your well-being, With over 20 years of experience and a Ph.D. in Psychology from Ball State University, I've had the privilege of working with clients navigating a wide range of concerns-from ADHD, Autism diagnostic assessments to Women's health issues and beyond.
I'm a licensed clinical mental health therapist that specializes in healing depression, anxiety, PTSD, disruptive behaviors, childhood trauma and various personality disorders. I have extensive experience with adolescent and family therapy but also work with wide range of age groups.
With over a decade of experience, I offer tailored therapy for diverse challenges: Disruptive Behavior, Parental Stress, LGBTQIA Support, Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Relationships, Grief, Life Transitions, BIPOC Concerns, and Personal Growth. I use a holistic approach integrating Trauma-Informed Care, CBT, and Behavior Therapy. Let's work towards healing and growth together!
I’m a therapist who believes real change happens when you feel both understood and challenged. I won’t just sit back and nod—I’ll help you make sense of what’s going on, and we’ll actively work toward shifting it.
My style is warm, direct, and collaborative. I create a space where you can be honest without feeling judged, while also helping you notice patterns that may be keeping you stuck. I draw from approaches like emotionally focused therapy (EFT), parts work, and skills-based strategies when helpful, but I tailor everything to you rather than forcing you into a one-size-fits-all model.
I work with adults and couples navigating things like relationship stress, trauma, anxiety, identity questions, and major life transitions. With couples, I focus on helping you understand the deeper emotional dynamics underneath conflict—not just the surface arguments—so you can rebuild trust, connection, and a sense of security.
If you’re looking for therapy that goes beyond just talking and moves toward real, lasting change, we’ll likely be a good fit.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist who provides a sophisticated intellectual partnership for adults who feel internally chaotic despite external high-performance. My approach is designed for the intellectually curious—the high-achiever navigating "fraud" syndrome, complex trauma, or intense emotional volatility. I offer a high-fidelity space where we move beyond standard therapeutic scripts to name the underlying patterns you have been living in but could not quite see.
My name is Dr. Jim Fox (please call me Jim), and I’m so glad you're looking for support. Reaching out for support is the first step in making your life a little easier. I am a:
- Licensed Professional Counselor (Colorado) and a
- Licensed Mental Health Counselor (Indiana).
I have over 30 years of licensed therapy experience working with a diverse range of clients. I am dedicated to tailoring our sessions to meet your unique needs and goals.
My education includes
- master’s degree in counseling from Denver Seminary
- doctorate in educational psychology, research, and evaluation from the University of Northern Colorado.
I am a Master Addiction Counselor and have experience with most problems, including
- couples problems,
- depression,
- anxiety,
- adjustment disorders,

If you would like help from a Christian perspective, please feel free to ask. Here is some of my background:
- I am a graduate of Denver Seminary
- I am should graduate in September or October 2026 with a second doctorate (D.Min) in Christ-Centered Counseling at Trinity Theological Seminary.
- I served as a pastor.
- I was married to a pastor for 33 years until she passed away last year.
I provide a safe, affirming space for folks experiencing trauma, bipolar, psychosis, depression, identity exploration, and spiritual awakening. My approach is relational, collaborative, and rooted in deep respect for your lived experience. Together, we go beneath the surface, using mind-body awareness and the wisdom held in your nervous system as a doorway to what words alone can’t always reach. We move safely toward what’s been difficult to express, noticing how emotions live in the body and letting that awareness guide the healing, so you can begin to feel lighter and move through life with a greater sense of freedom.
If you’re looking for a therapist who quietly nods for 50 minutes, I may not be the best fit. My style is active, engaged, direct, and deeply relational.
I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, life transitions, and difficult interpersonal dynamics. Clients often describe feeling both genuinely supported and meaningfully challenged in our work together.
I believe therapy should help people gain insight, shift patterns, improve relationships, and move toward lasting change not just vent for an hour each week.
Clients should know that I’m a real person first and a therapist second. I actually started my career in sports management, but life had other plans — and a series of lived experiences pulled me toward social work in a way that felt impossible to ignore. I went on to complete my MSW at Indiana State University in Terre Haute, IN, and I’ve spent the last ten years working in child protection, community health, and hospital social work in a Level 1 trauma facility.
I also spent years as a caregiver, which made me especially comfortable working with older adults and taught me that humor, patience, and a good cup of coffee can get you through almost anything. I’m nearing completion of my PST therapy certification, which adds a structured, problem‐solving lens to the work we do.
I take therapy seriously, but I don’t take myself too seriously — so you can expect warmth, honesty, and the occasional well‐timed laugh when life hands us something so absurd it deserves one.
