James Lemli, Ph.D - Licensed Psychologist

As a licensed clinical psychologist, I have been treating children, adolescents, and adults for over 20 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 since 1991. My wife and I have been married for over 30 years and have raised two children here. I have extensive experience with anxiety disorders (including obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorder, social phobia, generalized anxiety, and traumatic stress), depression, mood disorders, psychological and behavioral aspects of illness, life adjustment, Asperger's Syndrome and social challenges, and family, marital and relationship concerns.

Approaches include cognitive-behavioral therapy, positive psychology, mindfulness, exposure and response prevention, intensive exposure, dialectical behavior therapy, schema therapy, and relaxation techniques. I am most aware of the value of a comfortable relationship with your therapist, and together we can formulate a plan to help you achieve optimal wellness.

James M. Lemli's Practice has been awarded as a top Psychology practice as one of Sarasota's best Psychologists.
