What People Are Saying About Jim

Clients

Several years ago, my life was spiraling downward. I was afraid I would die if I did not get help. I found Jim Schettler and started on a journey of healing. From the first session and all that followed, Jim's calming spirit created an accepting and safe environment to begin processing through my many issues. Working with Jim proved to be productive and helpful. I learned new strategies and coping skills, some that I continue to use today. I would highly recommend Jim. He is highly effective, caring, and compassionate. He is dedicated to helping clients improve their lives .– NT

I am so thankful that God led me to Jim Schettler at a difficult time in my life. Jim is excellent at what he does and I appreciate him so much his expertise. He has much to offer both in his skill and in his compassion for his clients. I never had any doubt that Jim cared for me in the most professional and sincere way that he could. He not only helped me to overcome obstacles and emotional wounds to reach a healthy place of healing, but Jim also equipped me with tools that I continue to use, I believe on a regular basis in my life. I have even heard myself repeating to others some of the very things that he said to me years ago. I believe Jim is gifted by God in the area of walking alongside those who need a listening ear, a voice of encouragement, a gentle but firm challenge, and a kind heart to speak the truth of how to be victorious over the things of this life that weigh us down and keep us from living in the freedom that God longs for us to have. – AR

"I've had such an incredibly great experience with Jim and EMDR therapy. For as long as I can remember I've suffered from chronic anxiety and severe, debilitating panic attacks. After tying countless remedies to no avail, I came across EMDR and decided to give it a shot. I progressed quickly throughout my time with Jim and within just a few weeks noticed huge relief. Not only did my sessions with Jim significantly decrease my anxiety and panic but it allowed me to tap into a stronger sense of self that now permeates my daily life. I am stronger, happier, and more empowered than ever. Jim is a wonderful guide and has been instrumental in my experience with EMDR. I'm so grateful for our time together and the resulting improvements in my life!" – AN

Jim has been such a blessing in my life! I came to him when I was deeply entangled in the grips of an eating disorder. Jim helped me see myself through God's eyes, helped me work through many life issues I had buried inside, and ultimately played a substantial role in my recovery process. I am so thankful for his presence in my life during that time. He truly helped change my life for the better and for that I am forever grateful! – BT
