More about me

Licensing: LCSW Years in Practice: 10 State: Illinois

I am a licensed clinical social worker who graduated from Jane Addams school of Social Work where I obtained a Master of Social Work Degree. I have over 10 years of experience working with children and adults who have experienced abuse, neglect, domestic violence, separation, and loss, depression. Furthermore, I have refined my skills working with adolescents and families impacted by depression, bipolar, substance abuse, interpersonal violence, and homelessness.,

My years of expertise have taught me the importance of engagement, validating, and supporting those who have experienced pain, suffering, and loss. My approach is supportive, collaborative, and I focus on advocacy rather than diagnose or labels. My approach combines mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, feminist, attachment, and psycho-dynamic theories.

It takes courage to see the need for therapy and perseverance to take the steps required to initiate therapy. I will be available to you for support, a witness to your experience, and a supporter of your journey toward your ultimate goal.

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.

You're an amazing listener and that alone is an amazing gift. Sometimes the best help is sharing things you can't or aren't comfortable sharing with anyone around you. Thank you!

Overall

Tim was essential for me to understand what was going on and to give me the tools to get better and improve. He was so quick in assessing and understanding, defining the causes of my troubles and immediately counseling on how to try to solve them. All of this basically at the first meeting. He is also someone that is able to listen and let you elaborate. A blessing that I had crossed him on my journey.
