Jim Schmidt LIMHP, LPC

Co-Owner / Therapist

Hi, I’m Jim. I believe that everyone comes to therapy with a unique story and a genuine desire for change. Whether you are an individual navigating a difficult life transition, an adolescent searching for balance, or a couple trying to reconnect, my goal is to help you find your path forward.

With over a decade of experience in outpatient mental health therapy, I provide a compassionate, tailored approach for children, adolescents, adults, and families. I co-founded Lotus Centre in 2025 to bridge a gap I saw during my 11 years working within the traditional medical model. Having personally experienced the profound benefits of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), I envisioned a practice that integrates evidence-based mental health services with holistic treatments to care for the mind, body, and soul.

My professional journey includes earning my Master of Science in Clinical Counseling from Bellevue University in 2014, completing foundational training at the Munroe-Meyer Institute, and dedicating nearly ten years to serving diverse populations at Lutheran Family Services. At Lotus Centre, I combine this deep clinical background with a holistic lens to help you achieve true, lasting balance.
