Hi, I'm Dr. James Lemli. As a licensed clinical psychologist, I have been treating children, adolescents and adults for over 25 years. I have a warm, caring approach to assessment and therapy, provided in an attractive, private office setting. I am originally from New York and have lived in Sarasota, Fl. since 1991. My wife and I have been married for 37 years and raised two children here. I have extensive experience with: anxiety disorders (including obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorder, social phobia, and generalized anxiety disorder), family and marital therapy and relationship concerns, depression, mood disorder, psychological and behavioral aspects of illness, life adjustment issues, autistic spectrum disorder. Approaches include cognitive-behavioral therapy, exposure and response prevention, mindfulness, dialectical behavior therapy, positive psychology, cognitive processing therapy, grief and trauma therapy and relaxation/meditation techniques. I am most aware of the value of a comfortable relationship with your therapist and being well understood and together we can formulate a plan to achieve optimal wellness.
