James Costigan, BACP

James Costigan offers a calm, attentive approach to therapy, helping men create space to slow down, reflect, and work through whatever is getting in the way of a steadier, more confident life. He focuses on building self-awareness, helping clients make sense of difficult emotions, and developing practical ways to meet stress, anxiety, and relationship challenges.

Specialising in work with men, he recognises that many pressures are held in silence and that recovery often begins with understanding how those pressures shape thoughts, behaviours, and relationships. He supports men facing depression, anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, addiction concerns including pornography, feelings of being lost, and pressures from professional life and performance expectations.

Therapy with James moves at a pace that suits the individual. He works collaboratively so clients can approach dilemmas with greater clarity, compassion, and confidence, and he draws on his own corporate experience when supporting those navigating workplace or career-related stress. He aims to help clients grow from their struggles, heal from past influences, and move toward the life they want.

Based in the United Kingdom, James is accredited by the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and has nine years of experience working with men on issues including self-esteem, intimacy, addiction, ADHD, and life transitions.
