James Weakley

Life can deal some nasty blows! Sometimes these blows can leave us feeling frightened, lonely, and isolated, wondering how long we can hang on. It’s at these times we really need someone in our corner.

Hello. My name is James Weakley. I am a licensed professional counselor and specialize in helping people heal from trauma and severe anxiety. I’ve spent years helping hurting people and have been trained and certified in the best and most gentle approaches. I am certified in EMDR and practice advanced EMDR interventions, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Clinical Hypnotherapy. I integrate mindfulness strategies into all of our work. My goal in life is to help heal the wounds the world can inflict. My focus is compassion without judgment.

If you’re hurting and ready to heal, please know life can be good again. Traumatic stress and anxiety don’t have to be a life sentence. There is healing and life after life’s damaging experiences. You can experience restored optimism and happiness. You really don’t have to “endure” life when it can be fulfilling and enjoyable again. Feel free to contact me so we can begin your healing experience.

Bill DeFelice (Ohio)

I am a practicing master’s degree level mental health and addiction counselor. I am licensed by the state of Ohio to provide this service. I am open to meeting with anyone for any type of issue. I assure you that the reason you are in therapy will be approached by myself in the utmost non-judgmental manner as humanly possible. I am also willing to use whatever type of therapy makes you progress the most positively during the process. I tend to use cognitive behavioral therapy as my starting point with all clients, and then I determine if there are any other types of therapy that are needed. If this is the case, I will introduce other types of therapy to the sessions as warranted. I am most skilled in the areas of addiction, depression, anxiety, anger management, behavior modification and a list of other areas as well. I just want to make you, the client, feel as though you have had the best counseling experience that you can possibly have. Please contact me soon, if you think I would be a good match for you.
