More about Timothy
- 6 years' experience
- Male
- LCSW
I am licensed in Wisconsin (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with 6 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, coping with grief, coping with loss, motivation, self esteem, & confidence. I also have experience working with depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
I tend to work using a client centered approach. This allows me to consider the need of each individual client rather than using a "cookie cutter" approach. Every client is different and some may respond better to one type of treatment structure versus another. Bottom line, I find what works for my clients; allowing me to utilize the client's strengths to promote healing. Every client has their own story to tell and every client is on their own journey. I find joy in watching my clients grow and heal in their own way. I look forward to helping you on life's journey!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
