James Wilson, BACP

James Wilson supports people who feel held back by anxiety, harsh self-criticism, or habitual patterns that make life feel harder than it needs to be. He offers a structured yet compassionate approach designed to help people step out of those automatic responses and reconnect with the part of themselves that holds clarity, values, and courage.

At the centre of his work is the Conscious Mind Empowerment Method, a practical framework that guides clients through a four-step change process. Through this process he helps people regain focus when overwhelming thoughts and emotions take over, adopt a kinder stance toward difficult feelings, reframe challenges so they link back to purpose and motivation, and take mindful, values-based actions even in difficult circumstances. He reports that clients often say the method brings both clarity and confidence and that it feels practical, compassionate, and sustainable.

James brings over 16 years of therapeutic experience and has worked with more than 600 clients worldwide. He is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP) - the UK professional body for counselling and psychotherapy - and of the Association Française de Thérapie Comportementale et Cognitive (AFTCC) - a French association for cognitive and behavioural therapy. His training includes Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and coaching skills. Sessions are collaborative and supportive, blending structure with empathy so clients leave with immediate tools and longer-term skills to live in greater alignment with their values. His stated aim is to empower people not just to cope but to thrive.
