James McCracken, MSW, LCSW

“My motto is “Life is better in the shelter of each other… We are designed for it,” and I practice this in as many roles as I can, including as a supervisor: It is my intention to provide a safe and secure experience for therapists to learn and practice.  Located in Durham, North Carolina, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, in practice for over 20 years (in both public and private practice settings), and am now the co-founder and Clinical Director of a group practice (“North Carolina Therapy Professionals, PLLC”) where I have been passionate about helping therapists be their best selves with and for their patients and each other. 

In addition to being an AEDP Supervisor-in-Training, I am a Certified Emotionally Focused Therapy Supervisor (all modalities), and love helping clinicians learn how to harness the healing potentials within and for our clients, relationships, and ourselves while still being themselves.  AEDP gives us a profound way to know and understand psychotherapy, and it is always a privilege and honor to help therapists learn and practice this powerful model.”
