More about me

Licensing: LCSW Years in Practice: 5 State: Illinois

“Where you are, is where we will start” is a saying that has always resonated with me. I welcome you into the practice. I focus on a collaborative approach that hopefully will allow you to see the strengths that you already possess from your life experiences. Life can be hard. Having time to sit down, share stories, listen and work together to help with your present concerns is my hope for you. I incorporate many different styles into my work and together we will find the one that works best for you. If this is something that speaks to you, please feel free to contact me. I look forward to meeting you soon.

Some things that I have found work well for myself in creating a balanced life are gardening, spending time in nature, running, movement/dance and reading fiction.

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony. -Gandhi

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Tim makes me believe that therapy is a wonderful way to heal and grow in our personal lives. He has such good wisdom and advice. He shows me sides of situations I have never seen and gets me thinking and moving in the right direction. I'm grateful I found him and wish him the best.

Overall

Tim gave me tremendously insightful advice on each topic I brought to the conversation. I consider myself / circumstances complicated & I felt he understood me well & must have done his research as he was never off in his counsel & advice. He always got where I was going with a topic & kept me going in the right direction (I felt). He had given me some optional homework assignments, which at first I was like "I'll never have time for this" But when I sat & tried at least one of them I saw how helpful it was. After that I did all homework assignments with gusto. He truly chose the right profession & I wish him a world of good for the help he has given me & I'm sure many others! Many thanks Tim!
