JAMES COCHRAN
M.A., LPC, NCC
What Moss & Main Colleagues Say About JAMES:
There is an air of mystery about James. His eyes are warm, but you always get the sense that he is guarding a dark secret. Sure, he delights audiences the world over with his podcast Super Together, but what do we really know about James? We can speak to our experience of him... he listens carefully, he speaks meaningfully, he’s funny, and he’s really smart! It's been said that he sleeps only one hour each night (this is untrue). If you listen carefully, you'll hear him humming the theme song to Elena of Avalor. He also likes spreadsheets.

What’s behind the name?
We know everyone has a Main Street. It’s what we present to the world. We want people to pass by, admire us, and wonder how we can be so well put together. We show off our pretty storefronts and well-manicured lawns and never intend to appear anything short of perfect.
Just beyond our Main Street, there’s Moss growing in the shadows. Sometimes we know the moss is there, sometimes it creeps up on us. But, we all have it. The thing about moss is, it can appear to be a beautiful part of the landscape. Sometimes we don’t even know it’s a problem until it’s choking out all the growth that should be happening around it.
At Moss and Main, we want to dig into your moss. We want to help you clear out the parts of your life that are keeping you from growing in ways you want to grow. We’re not here to change you. We’re here to show you that you can live the life you’re meant to live.
