About James
James Ingram is a counsellor who focuses on helping people facing depression, anxiety and major life stresses. He works in a straightforward, collaborative way. He aims to create an accepting space where people can speak honestly and gradually make sense of painful experiences.
He uses clear conversation to help people notice patterns and try different ways of coping. Sessions are practical and paced to each person, with room to look at feelings and day-to-day choices.
Background and approach
He listens for attachment patterns and relationship themes that affect mood and behaviour. James brings four years of clinical experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He has supported people through bereavement, cancer-related issues, and relationship breakdown.
He also helps with body image, sexuality and gender identity concerns, and the challenges that come with change or isolation. People who have experienced trauma or abuse can expect a sensitive approach that pays attention to safety and pacing. He also offers support for addiction-related struggles, anger, and career pressures.
Practical tools from cognitive behavioural ideas are used alongside longer conversations about meaning and identity. Sessions are offered in English and James accepts international clients. He aims to make therapy accessible and respectful, helping people explore what matters to them and move toward more manageable ways of living.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. James will discuss the different methods and agree a plan with each person. That choice is collaborative and may change as goals and needs become clearer.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, journalling-style reflections, or when writing helps people organise thoughts. These options make it easier to book regular sessions around work, caring duties or travel, while keeping the focus on steady, practical progress.
