About James
LPC Dr. James Florence has 31 years of experience and is licensed in Texas. He focuses on relationship concerns, anger, coping with life changes, coaching, and compassion fatigue. He also addresses issues such as aging and geriatric concerns, caregiver stress, commitment and communication problems, control issues, emptiness, guilt and shame, isolation and jealousy, money worries, men’s issues, midlife concerns, and process addictions.
Dr. Florence works from a client-centered perspective and also uses cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing. He treats people as the experts on their own lives and helps them use their strengths to make changes. Sessions tend to be conversational and practical, with attention to specific thoughts, behaviors, and choices that get in the way.
In sessions he listens to what matters most and helps set concrete goals. He may challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and test small behavior changes. For people facing midlife shifts, caregiver strain, or trouble managing anger, this mix of client-centered listening and CBT-style tools can help clarify next steps.
He also uses motivational interviewing to strengthen a person’s own reasons for change. That approach is useful for coaching goals and for addressing process addictions where motivation can fluctuate.
Dr. Florence’s background spans three decades of work in Texas settings. He draws on long experience with adults facing life transitions and professional stress. If you want to schedule, confirm the current session formats before booking and follow the site’s sign-up steps.

How his approaches shape remote work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s perspective. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what they say, and helps them identify their own goals. This approach suits people who want a conversational, non-directive starting point.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises and small behavioral experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT is often used for anger, unhelpful thought patterns, and changing routine behaviors.
Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify why change matters to them and strengthen their own motivation. It uses focused questions and reflective listening to resolve mixed feelings and support commitment to specific steps.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean combining client-centered listening with CBT tools and motivational interviewing techniques over time.
The original biography does not list which session formats are offered. Confirm the available online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, enable shorter check-ins when needed, and allow conversations without travel time. They can also let someone choose audio-only interactions if that better suits their routine or bandwidth.
