I’m James “Jamie” Fortin, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist offering in-person therapy in Santa Barbara and online therapy throughout California. I work with teens, adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, grief, life transitions, identity, and relationship concerns. My approach is humanistic and person-centered. I bring curiosity, compassion, and clinical experience to a collaborative relationship that respects your pace and choices. Our work may include cognitive behavioral tools, attention to the body and nervous system, and exploration of attachment and relationship patterns. With couples, I draw on the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy. My practice welcomes LGBTQIA+ clients, consensually nonmonogamous relationships, and kink and BDSM communities. Animal-assisted therapy with Sophie is available for clients who find it helpful. I am a private-pay provider and offer superbills for possible out-of-network reimbursement. You don’t need to have everything figured out before beginning.
