Outpatient Therapist in
Baxter Village
“Nobody important? Blimey, that's amazing. You know, in 900 years of time and space, I've never met anyone who wasn't important before?” - The Doctor
If you’re looking for a therapist who understands complexity, empathy, and real-world challenges—this is the space for you. My name is Jim and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in both North Carolina and South Carolina with experience supporting individuals navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and ADHD. My practice is rooted in compassion, authenticity, and evidence-based care.
With a strong foundation in multicultural perspectives, I provide inclusive, nonjudgmental care to LGBTQ+ individuals, veterans, first responders, and those living with social isolation or identity-related concerns. I work to create a safe and affirming environment where every person is seen, heard, and valued.
My therapeutic approach emphasizes understanding your unique story and tailoring strategies to support your goals. Clients often come to me with struggles involving communication, social anxiety, sexuality, chronic pain, and relational conflict. Together, we unpack difficult experiences, develop emotional resilience, and foster confidence in navigating life’s demands.
I am here to walk alongside you with empathy, clarity, and steady support. You don’t have to face these challenges alone. Help is here.
We offer a 100% risk-free initial consultation, so the first step into therapy is the simplest. Call Restoration Counseling Center today at 704-502-9397 or email admin@restorationcounselingclt.com to book an appointment with me, and let’s get started. I look forward to working with you!
