James Elder MBACP, is a Therapist and Associate Consultant who works as Head Of Clinical Practice for Atrium. James  believes that when it comes to wellbeing, productivity, emotional health, and mental health, it is just as important to  have a fence at the top of the cliff, as an ambulance at the bottom. Why wait until we have an expensive crisis to solve? 

James has worked with Atrium for over a decade, setting the initial standards for Atrium's Therapists. James led the launch and rollout of Atrium's worldwide online counselling service: the first of its kind pre-pandemic. James creates and delivers seminars and programmes for Atrium's Wellbeing pillar, including Mental Health Awareness, Eliminating Blame Culture, and Sales Confidence programmes for business. James’ deep understanding of the challenges for people in business has informed his work as a psychological coach for C-Level clients across a spectrum of diverse industries. 

James is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He has thousands of hours of experience of therapy practice and, as an Alumni of the University of Greenwich (BA Hons, Humanistic Integrative Counselling), went on to deliver the University Of Greenwich’s Humanistic Counselling Degree as a lecturer. 

You are just as likely to find James on the frontline, delivering therapy, as running seminars on new insights in wellbeing for business, or in boardroom presentations to Atrium's clients.
