Early intervention can prevent problems from developing into more serious, long-term situations.  We will explore internal patterns and external behaviors that affect your life while developing communication skills and personal insights that will improve your personal and professional relationships.  Being heard and understood clearly leads to greater connection and intimacy with others.

As a Licensed Family Therapist with a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, I have borrowed from both fields to achieve an effective and dynamic program for helping people improve their communication, resolve problems, and realize greater personal growth in their lives.

Experience has shown that when people are given insight into their challenges and are then given the tools to deal with them, it has a synergistic effect that can assist them in achieving their goals more quickly and effectively.

My clients are given tools they can use in their daily lives to experience greater clarity, direction and satisfaction.

I believe that it's the role of the therapist to be actively involved in the therapy room.  I listen and reflect, but I also contribute insightful feedback, informative handouts, personality testing, homework, behavior techniques to try at home and direct responses to any questions you have.  We're in this together. 
 
I treat you as a whole and capable person with individual needs. I place importance on people above theories.  Having a strong, trusting and supportive relationship in the therapy room means that we're both real people working together to help find you the answers that you're seeking.  Together, we'll explore the creative use of your drives, enhance intimacy, explore your dreams and remove the blocks to get what you want out of life.
“Together, we focus on finding solutions to heal relationships, improve work situations, eliminate conflict, improve communication, find a way out
of pain and create a new direction to finding happiness in love, work & life.”  Dr. Jim

Together we can stop the pain...
and move your life forward.

As a winner of a JPF Music Award, you're part of a special club and it never goes away.  Our awards in 2009 will likely stand for a long time as the largest music awards ever conducted in world history.  Because we are returning to a yearly structure, it's unlikely that the 2010 awards will be as large.  So you have a distinction that may well stand for quite some time.  To survive 17 months including 5 preliminary rounds of screening and then rise to the very top of the final nominees is really impressive.   We had entries from 163 countries and nominees from app. 100.  Only 80 songs out of 560,000 won an award and only 93 albums out of over 42,000 won an award.   That's still mind boggling to me.  You should be proud of the accomplishment knowing that there were no industry politics or insider deals or special treatment and it certainly wasn't just a popularity contest.  I've only met a handful of you in person before these awards.   You did this 100% on your own and based solely on your music moving people.  We had over 10,000 judges assigned in the final round alone.  

This is what Brian, founder of JPF, has to say about the JPF Award winners

He will guide you through releasing the blocks and limiting beliefs that have kept you bound to self-defeating patterns and motivate you to achieve the personal changes you've always wanted.

Here's what he has to say about this series: 

"Over 20 years of clinical experience has gone into the making of The Dr. Walton Self-Help Series.  Going back over two decades, I have pulled from my private practice those therapeutic interventions and hypnosis treatments that worked most effectively for my patients.  I now present them to you in the most comprehensive audio series on the market today. 

Experience has shown me that when people are given understanding about an issue from a psychological perspective and then given the tools and strategies to change their behaviors in combination with the immediate effectiveness of hypnosis it has a synergistic effect that can assist in achieving their results more quickly." 

Dr. Jim's powerful hypnosis treatment creates a highly receptive alpha state that works together with the unconscious mind to help you experience a greater sense of your personal power and self-control.

If you program your unconscious mind to have a focused, supportive, positive outlook, you can reach any goal you aspire to.  Dr. Walton's award winning self-help series can help you achieve that focus and get faster results.

In 2006, Dr. Jim was awarded First Runner-Up for Best Album of the Year in self-help from the prestigious JPF International Music Awards.  All the quality and expertise that earned him that award is found in every one of his self-help albums.  Download one right now and start your new life today!

Ultimate Weight Loss
From over 45,000 album entries around the world, Ultimate Weight Loss won "Best Self-Help Album of the Year" at the 2009 International JPF Music Awards, the world's largest independent music awards.
Jeff Tannen – Licensed CA Marriage & Family Therapist
Outstanding! Dr.Walton has made an ideal CD that effectively targets all the weight loss issues whether you want to lose a lot or little weight.

Charles Buell – Financial Consultant
This CD is an effective way to loose weight. It is not a one stop quick fix but something you have to review on a weekly or monthly basis to loose weight and keep it off. I lost about 10 pounds in a month (something I have been trying to do for years). When I notice those few pounds starting to come back, I just listed to the CD again. It really help me to be able to push myself away from the table without wishing for more food.

Jody Yordan – Music Producer
Thank you Dr. Walton for this amazing cd.Your methods and detailed meditation made this an easy way to conquer my compulsive eating habits and I cant thank you enough.This cd is amazing.I have lost 8 lbs in two weeks and I'm blown away.
Reviews
Never over-eat or binge again with this #1 award winning album. You can lose the weight and have a healthier body.  It’s the only body you’ll ever have. Love it and respect it without judgment. Success at weight loss is not as much about reducing the body as it is about expanding the heart.  
Grief is a necessary part of recovery from a loss. Grief can force us to reevaluate our life; but, sometimes we get lost and can’t find our way out. Gently and lovingly, this album lifts the spirit as it points the way towards a new beginning.
