James Bunch, LPCC

James Bunch is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Ohio who brings seven years of counseling experience to his work with individuals, couples, and groups. He approaches therapy as a collaborative endeavor, listening carefully, seeking to understand each person's story, and working alongside clients through both challenges and victories. With a background in counseling across a range of concerns, he often supports people struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma and abuse, relationship and family issues, grief, parenting challenges, anger, bipolar disorder, and intimacy-related problems.

James has developed particular strengths in relationship and marriage counseling, and he frequently helps couples navigate commitment concerns, communication difficulties, and forgiveness. He blends evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness Therapy with solution-focused strategies and motivational interviewing to tailor care to each client's needs. He also has experience addressing process addictions, panic disorder, guilt and shame, and other life stressors.

He earned a B.A. in Psychology with a Bible minor and a master's degree in Professional Counseling, later completing licensure as an LPCC. A lifelong Ohio resident, James balances professional life with a busy family home - he and his wife have five sons - and enjoys the outdoors, sports, music, reading, and community involvement. His faith and personal interests inform his warm, service-oriented approach to counseling.
