My Approach to Helping

You are coming to therapy with stories. Your stories are unique and significant, and have helped contribute to your development as a person. You have stories that you love to tell; and you have those you would prefer to forget. Timâs style of therapy offers a warm and safe setting where you will be supported and understood, while being gently challenged and encouraged to explore those stories.

Tim approaches therapy from a systems perspective, which means that he views you within the context of your relationships. Those relationships may be with those you call family or friends; they may be healthy relationships or strained ones. Those relationships impact you in many ways, some of which you may have never realized. Tim will provide compassionate guidance as you explore the consequences of your interactions with others in your life.

At Foundations Counseling, Tim works with clients who seek counseling for a variety of reasons, including:

Relationship and Family Issues: Couples and marital therapy, singles issues, dating issues, premarital education and counseling, communication skill development, conflict resolution, anger, addictions, sexuality issues, affairs, divorce, parenting challenges, foster family concerns, multi-generational families, men'ï¿½ï¿½s issues

Growing through Life Changes / Transitions: Grief and loss, life transitions, career challenges and changes, finding hope and meaning, spirituality / faith

Health and Wellness: Emotion regulation, stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, body image issues, sleep problems, trauma and abuse recovery, post-traumatic stress disorder, alcohol and drug abuse

Tim considers you the expert on your own life. He will honor your experiences and spend time listening to the life stories that are important to you. Together you and he will seek to understand those stories and explore how they fit into the context of your life. Many clients have found Tim to be a supportive and encouraging guide in their quest for growth and healing. He greatly values the therapeutic relationship and is committed to serving you with openness, respect, curiosity, and acceptance.
