About Me.

Meet James, the visionary force behind Lockwood Wellness Services. James was raised at Lockbriar Farms, where agriculture meets a commitment to excellence. Nestled in the heart of the eastern shore of Maryland, my roots run deep in the soil of a 20+ acre fruit and vegetable farm, where my journey in agriculture began. From cultivating crops to crafting honey, I started my entrepreneurial spirit on this family land at the age of 7, establishing a business dedicated to raising honey bees for pollination and honey production. 

 

As the Executive of Lockbriar Farms, my role extends beyond the fields. I've played a pivotal role as General Counsel, stewarding the 3rd liquor license after Prohibition for the venerable State Line Liquors, a family business with over 90 years of industry leadership. Navigating the streets as an Uber driver, owning and managing businesses, and juggling the roles of a therapist, social media manager, and website designer have enriched my understanding of diverse industries. 

 

Embarking on a journey that transcends the confines of the traditional boardroom, I sought personal growth and leadership development at the Colorado Outward Bound School. In the heart of the rugged wilderness, I navigated untamed rivers, conquered towering peaks, and immersed myself in the pristine beauty of places like Banff National Park. These experiences were not just adventures; they were transformative lessons in resilience, teamwork, and effective leadership.

 

​Amidst these exhilarating escapades, a new chapter emerged. I founded Lockwood Wellness Services, a beacon of support and healing for those navigating life's complexities. This therapy company is more than a business; it's a commitment to helping individuals discover their paths and live authentically meaningful lives. The same passion that drives me in the fields of Lockbriar Farms is infused into the fabric of Lockwood Wellness Services, creating a unique synergy between nature, personal growth, and mental well-being. 

 

From the depths of deep-sea fishing adventures to the heights of scaling 12,000-foot peaks, from the thrill of snowboarding in Utah to the awe-inspiring ascent of volcanoes in Hawaii, my thirst for adventure has traversed every corner of the United States. This diverse tapestry of experiences has not only broadened my horizons but also shaped my perspective on life, growth, and the boundless possibilities that await those who seek them. 

 

As we navigate this multifaceted journey together, the convergence of Lockbriar Farms and Lockwood Wellness Services creates a legacy that extends far beyond the boundaries of a farm or a therapy session. It's a legacy that resonates in the hearts of those who yearn for growth, fulfillment, and a connection to something greater. Every page of this narrative is an adventure waiting to unfold, and I invite you to join me in the exploration of a life rich in purpose and profound experiences.
