About James Barger

I am licensed in California with 14 years of professional work experience in psychotherapy. I also have an additional 17 years of experience in the mental health field. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, lgbtq+ related issues, trauma and abuse, & coping with grief and loss. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process. I look forward to working together as a team to address issues that may be holding you back and developing skills and strategies to help you succeed.
