About James
James Bunch is an Ohio LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) with seven years of counseling experience. He focuses on common concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, relationships, and trauma. He also helps with parenting strain, anger, intimacy-related concerns, and process addictions.
He approaches sessions in a practical, goal-focused way. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) among other methods to notice unhelpful thoughts and shift routines that keep problems going. He also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused ideas when those methods fit a person's goals.
In sessions he listens and works with people to set clear, manageable steps. Conversations often include identifying thought patterns, practicing new responses, and trying brief behavioral experiments between meetings. He also offers help with communication problems, commitment concerns, forgiveness, and feelings of guilt or shame.
James has a background in counseling both individuals and couples and has spent focused time on relationship and marriage issues. His training includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Cedarville University and a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. He lists experience working in group settings as well as one-to-one counseling.
James lives in Ohio with his wife and five sons. Outside of work he spends time outdoors, follows sports and music, and participates in his local community. He conducts sessions in English and does not accept international clients.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
James commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in practical ways. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. DBT offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He will work with each person to select methods that match their goals and preferences, and adjust techniques as progress is made. Clients and therapist set clear steps and review them together between meetings.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, and keep check-ins brief when needed. For many people, remote sessions let them practice skills in day-to-day settings and discuss how exercises went between meetings.
