Tavia James, LPC

Tavia James, LPC, is a Texas State Board Licensed Professional Counselor who brings 12 years of experience to her work with adolescents, adults, and families. She earned a Master's Degree in Vocational Rehabilitation Counseling, with an emphasis in Ethnic Minorities, from Southern University and A&M College, and was inducted into Chi Sigma Iota, an international counseling honor society. Her early career focused on supporting people with physical and mental disabilities, with particular attention to workforce adjustment and the practical challenges that can arise in day-to-day functioning and employment settings.

As her work evolved, Tavia completed additional education to provide clinical psychotherapy for a wide range of concerns and diverse backgrounds. She has formal training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and she integrates insight, realistic strategies, and usable tools to help clients develop a workable blueprint for the days, months, and years ahead.

Tavia’s clinical interests include building strategies and support systems around disability-related concerns, trauma, work-life balance, depression, and anxiety-provoking thoughts. She approaches therapy with a holistic, solution-focused mindset, partnering with clients as they clarify goals, strengthen coping skills, and work toward feeling more grounded about themselves and their future. She believes meaningful change grows when intention is matched with conscious imagination, and she aims to support and empower clients as they take the next steps forward.
