Jim Moakley, a dedicated Marriage & Family Therapist with an MS and LMFT credentials, believes that everyone deserves to feel happy, healthy, and loved. He understands that relationships can either bring immense joy and fulfillment or lead individuals to merely go through the motions. In today’s fast-paced world, it is all too easy to lose connection with those who matter most, as poor communication fosters misunderstanding and resentment. Jim recognizes that instead of nurturing those relationships, individuals may find themselves exhausting energy in conflict and discontent. Jim’s approach emphasizes the importance of gaining awareness and learning from past experiences, marking the first steps towards genuine progress. He finds deep satisfaction in aiding individuals in overcoming their obstacles, enabling them to give and receive love, achieve acceptance, and realize their inherent worth. Since 2009, Jim has helped clients transform their lives, guiding them toward achieving their aspirations. He has worked with individuals, couples, families, and groups across various ages and backgrounds, including those grappling with severe diagnoses, such as bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and eating disorders, along with other significant challenges like trauma, substance use, and domestic violence. Jim’s practice is centered around the belief that no single approach fits everyone; hence, he tailors his methods by drawing from numerous therapeutic orientations to meet the unique needs of each client. His philosophy places the client in control, as they set their goals while Jim supports them in their journey to realization and fulfillment.
