More about Tim

  • 3 years' experience
  • Male

I am a university-trained psychologist with three years of experience in specialized mental health care. In my work, I have supported adults facing a wide range of challenges, including addiction, depression, relationship problems, ADHD, and low self-esteem.

In my sessions, I create a safe and open environment where you can speak freely—without fear of judgment. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on and what obstacles you're encountering. From there, we’ll focus on what you need to feel better and take steps toward healing and personal growth.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a 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.
