About James
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 35 years of experience, James (Jim) Wells helps people facing depression, grief, intimacy-related concerns, and addiction. He also works with anxiety, stress, bipolar disorder, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, eating issues, anger, and coping with life changes. He has additional focus on aging and geriatric issues, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and infidelity.
Jim uses Existential Therapy as a primary approach. He helps people clarify what matters most to them and how their choices shape daily life. In sessions he pays attention to present experience and to how clients make sense of difficult events.
His style is direct and practical. He asks questions that help people notice patterns and decide what they want to change. Sessions include talking through current problems, identifying obstacles, and trying different ways of responding.
Jim has worked in clinical settings and sometimes served as a supervisor during his career. That background informs how he structures sessions and how he tracks progress over time. He collaborates with people to create a plan that addresses short-term concerns as well as longer-term meaning and values.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session. The counselor uses a subscription model for payment that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary with location.

Existential approach and remote sessions
Existential Therapy helps people focus on meaning, choice, and responsibility. It looks at how values and life circumstances influence decisions and emotional struggles, which can be useful for grief, depression, and questions about purpose.In practice James will use that lens to help people name what matters, notice limiting patterns, and consider new ways of acting. He talks with clients about present experience and choices rather than relying on labels; this can help when coping with life changes, end-of-life concerns, or relationship stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide whether Existential Therapy fits their goals and adjust the plan based on what the client needs and prefers.
Session formats are not listed in his biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits someone's schedule. Licensed professionals often use remote work to keep continuity of care and to make therapy more practical for everyday life.
