James McGrath

Hi, I'm James--a Graduate Student at Lindenwood University working toward my degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. My journey into this field is deeply personal and purpose-driven. After earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from Maryville University, I spent a decade navigating the fast-paced world of business, gaining experience in insurance, finance, and supply chain. While that work sharpened my skills in communication and problem-solving, I always knew my true calling was in mental health.

My passion lies in helping people grow, heal, and thrive. I specialize in a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy, creating a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where clients can explore their emotions, build self-confidence, and move toward meaningful change. My style is collaborative, empathetic and focused on you and your goals.

While I am passionate about all aspects of mental health, I have a special interest in performance anxiety--whether than means helping adults manage workplace pressure or supporting teens navigating academic or athletic stress. No matter where you are starting from, I'm here to walk alongside you.
