James McWilliams

Study Tutor, Trainer

James graduated with a Post Graduate Diploma from the Trust in 2018 and is in private practice; offers counselling to executives, professionals and the LGBTQ+ community.

Alongside 15 years of experience in the corporate sector, James spent 10 years volunteering at prominent LGBTQ+ organisations including Terrence Higgins Trust, Switchboard, Albert Kennedy Trust and Diversity Role Models.

For James, Psychosynthesis offers a lens through which to look at life with an enriched sense of meaning and purpose. Additionally, the model has a welcoming attitude, an inclusivity which incorporates many other forms of therapeutic endeavour and schools of thought.

When working with students and clients alike, James is keen to support each individual in striking a harmonious balance between the central Psychosynthesis tenets of Love & Will.

Outside of the therapy room, James has hosted a number of talks, presentations and podcasts on LGBTQ+ mental health and dispelling the myths around counselling & psychotherapy.
