Denise James

I currently have a supervision slot available Thursdays 9am.

I am an accredited therapist and I have been in Practice for 38 years. 

Since 1994 I have been supervising therapists from a range of theoretical modalities, workplace environments, learning institutions and private practices; therapists counselling clients from diverse backgrounds.

As a supervisee client, I create space for you to develop your practice organically & authentically, increasing confidence & competence in your skills set, experience and knowledge. I work with you in a framework of equality as one therapist practitioner to another, guiding and supporting your practice as well as  directing you to resources, as and when needed. 

My supervision sessions are a transformative experience, where I work intuitively & at relational depth, creating  a safe space where you can continue to learn, grow, and fulfil our potential as a fellow practitioner.

I am a two times published author. My first book Back to love, is a first generation British born African Caribbean Woman's healing journey from Adverse Childhood Experiences, in a sexist & racist-riddled society. My second book Inner Life Writes: A Manifesto for RE-Connecting to Love, RE-Newing Your Mind & Radiating Your Light, continues on the theme of healing, taking and championing healing in the realm  of  "collective responsibility." 

Both books are a great learning manuals for therapists in training, practitioners,  and clients alike. Back to love in particular shares my story of becoming a Counsellor and all that entailed as I healed, overcame childhood trauma & painful relationship patterns, and came into my own: came Back to love and my true self.

All sessions currently delivered online,  via Zoom, Teams, and the likes. 

Typically, the first session is to get to know about you, your needs and wants, your client work, and hopes for supervision, as well as find out what you can expect to receive from the type of supervision I provide.

Currently I have the following slots available: 

Tuesdays 11am.

Thursdays 12noon. 

I am an accredited therapist with 38 years experience working with people struggling with all types of problem behaviours, traumas and challenging life events. Whatever the presenting problem, I am a therapist who is passionate about self-transformation and the living of the best life experience possible. The the type of therapy I provide helps clients to realise lasting-change. I currently offer 6 weeks solution focused therapy. 

I also provide 8 weeks Inspirational spiritual life coaching  targeted at assisting clients work towards the realisation of Dreams and respond to a greater Call to find meaning and purpose in their lives.

During the course of this transformative therapy and/or self-inquiring Inspirational spiritual life coaching,  you will gain insight into your particular life and relationship patterns, and in so doing gain greater awareness & capacity for self-compassion. Additionally, you will be supported as you find and try out more self-soothing and life-affirming ways of living, being, self-expressing, loving & coping.

My book Back to love, is a first generation British born African Caribbean Woman's healing journey from Adverse Childhood Experiences to true- self & Dreams - realising living. I  have a huge belief in the Transformative Power of creativity, and learning & growing through the sharing of experiences: Experience teaches.

From my Inspirational & Transformative Practice you can expect to feel safe, heard and encouraged to find and realise your best life experience possible. 

During the first session you will be invited to share your life story to date, also to share what ails and challenges you, and become clear on what you would like to get from the therapeutic experience. In the first session, you also get the opportunity to find out more about my Practice and me.
