James Landy, BACP

James Landy is a warm, relaxed and empathic cognitive behavioral therapist with three years of clinical experience. He practises CBT - a structured, evidence-based approach that helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and replace them with more constructive patterns - and uses it to support clients facing anxiety, depression, stress, OCD and low self-esteem. His working style is collaborative and practical, combining clear techniques with genuine care to help clients make measurable progress. James aims to provide a supportive space where clients feel heard and understood, and where therapy focuses on real-world skills and tools tailored to each person’s situation. He works with clients to set achievable goals, practice new strategies between sessions and build resilience for ongoing challenges. As a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - he aligns his practice with recognised professional standards and ongoing development. Across sessions James prioritises clarity, warmth and practical problem solving to help clients move forward from the concerns that brought them to therapy

CBT-based approaches and remote care

James emphasizes cognitive behavioral therapy, a structured method that helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and replace them with more adaptive patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress and OCD, and it focuses on practical strategies that can be practiced between sessions to create change.

Alongside CBT, James uses evidence-based, skills-focused work that targets self-esteem and coping with life changes. This involves learning concrete tools for emotional regulation, communication and problem solving that support recovery from relationship difficulties, feelings of emptiness or life transitions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and is decided collaboratively. James works with clients to review goals, preferences and progress and to adjust methods when needed so the treatment fits each person’s needs.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility in how sessions take place - by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Remote options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, to access support from different locations and to maintain continuity of care while using practical, evidence-based techniques.
