Dr. James Cole Creely, PHD

I’m an older adult. So over the years I’ve met and worked with a number of therapists. Dr. Creely is the brightest, most caring, best informed and educated person I’ve ever met in this field. He’s off the scale. The process of therapy is complex and sometimes unappealing. I think we tend to choose a “stuck” position because it’s familiar, even though not beneficial. Dr. Creely kindly and successfully works as a partner in growth and moving forward. He’s the best!

I've never felt so understood until I started my therapy sessions with Dr. Creely a few weeks ago. Considering the pandemic, I was skeptical about whether video-based therapy would help. I proved myself wrong from Day 1. I've been able to cope with the effects of self-isolation and the pain of an ever-increasing amount of anxiety. He listens, understands, and has an uncanny ability to unearth what is at the core of what I am saying, even when I'm unable to find the words. Today, we had a particularly powerful session that helped me shift my thinking around an issue that has shaped how I view communication with friends and coworkers. It's something that has haunted me for many years with anxiety, and today I feel like I finally found the key to unlock the thought patterns that will help me have difficult conversations without guilt or shame. It's amazing to think this is only the beginning—I look forward to continuing to grow as a person with Dr. Creely's help.
