About James

James Panozzo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 15 years of counseling experience and a background of more than 30 years working in manufacturing roles across logistics, finance, and quality control. He draws on that practical career experience to help clients navigate workplace stress, career decisions, and life transitions while keeping discussions grounded and solution-focused.

James aims to foster an open, nonjudgmental therapeutic space where thoughts and feelings can be explored honestly. He views the decision to seek therapy as an opportunity for greater self-understanding and improved relationships with others, and he supports clients in discovering new directions for their lives.

He also holds a CAADC certification - Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor - and integrates 12-step principles alongside counseling techniques when working with addictive behaviors. Those principles may also be applied when addressing anxiety, depression, disappointment, and the strain of work-related pressures as part of a broader recovery and restoration process.

James is able to work with clients who have insurance and brings a practical, compassionate approach to helping people manage stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, career issues, and other life challenges.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a central approach James uses. CBT helps identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns by teaching practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and challenges with self-esteem. It emphasizes short-term, goal-oriented work that can produce measurable changes in thinking and daily habits.

James also draws on 12-step principles as part of his work with addictive behaviors and recovery. Those steps and underlying principles offer structure, reflection, and practical practices that can complement counseling when addressing addiction, guilt, shame, or patterns that interfere with life goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. James works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as progress and challenges emerge.

Online therapy makes these approaches more accessible through flexible options - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - allowing clients to connect with licensed professionals from home, work, or on the go. This flexibility can help people maintain consistency in care while fitting therapy into busy schedules.
