James Yi
LMSW
Hello, my name is James Yi, and I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW). I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Connecticut, where I specialized in working with individuals, groups, and families. My experience spans various clinical settings, including psychiatric facilities and schools, where I have worked closely with adults, adolescents, and children. I have experience addressing a range of issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and everyday life stressors.
In my practice, I utilize brief Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI) to help my clients identify and overcome barriers, build on their strengths, and achieve their goals. I believe that listening is key to understanding and effectively supporting my clients, and I am committed to creating a safe and empathetic environment where they feel heard and valued. My goal is to assist you in navigating life’s challenges and promoting your overall well-being. I look forward to starting our journey together!
