Hi! My name is Tim (he/him) and I am a psychotherapist who is passionate about helping people from diverse backgrounds heal, grow, and work towards a life they believe is worth living. I have training and experience in clinical mental health counseling, substance use counseling, and higher education, and earned masters degrees from Marquette University and Wheaton College. I enjoy specializing in helping folks move forward as they work through anxiety, depression, substance use patterns, life transitions, identity, and personal growth.

Are you struggling with managing stress and anger? Do you feel overwhelmed with day-to-day tasks or have trouble falling asleep because you can't turn your brain "off"? I strive to support each client through empathy, education and humor. I am passionate about working with clients to help process challenges, to gain skills or provide some extra support during life's transitions. I have worked with all ages in hospital settings, outpatient, addiction treatment and community settings. My specialties include anxiety disorders, ADHD and substance use concerns

What do you need right now to make things okay? Its likely that if you knew that answer, you would not be looking for help! Life feels so frustrating or hopeless sometimes; you want to feel good but just don’t know how. It is hard to know where to start. The truth is, you already have all the answers within yourself but those answers may be hiding, obscured by fears or depression. They might be buried deep within you, just waiting to be recognized and brought forth.

Sometimes the solutions are easier to find with someone who will help you sort through all the noise to find what is true and real. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, past trauma or grief, I can help you find the path that works for you --in order-- to move forward with your life. Together, we will sort through the messiness that is life to find those pieces that make sense.

You’ve built your career. You’ve earned the title. You’ve learned how to perform, make decisions, solve problems, and lead others. But what got you here... may not be what keeps you there and takes you to your next level. The next level of leadership isn’t always about learning another strategy or adding another skill. Sometimes, it’s about shifting what’s happening within you—the way you think, the way you respond under pressure, what you’ve carried, and the habits & patterns that influence how you lead.

I work with leaders to help them lead with calm, confident composure. Leading doesn’t have to be so hard. Call or email me today. I meet you where you're at and start by listening closely, nonjudgmentally to your story. This helps us build trust & rapport. My approach leans more toward coaching to support you holistically—emotionally, mentally, and professionally. I help you understand what holds you back & keeps you overwhelmed or stuck. I offer practical tools you can use in your daily life.

You get the benefit of my 25 years of experience working with high‐potential, high-achieving professionals & leaders navigating stress, burnout, conflict with team members or the pressure to “hold everything together".

We explore what’s happening, without judgment. At the same time, you will get clear guidance, insight, and strategies that help you build emotional resilience, strengthen communication, set boundaries, and make meaningful changes.

I draw from what research says works best and years of experience in healthcare leadership, leadership coaching, and organizational psychology/development. Whether we’re addressing anxiety, depression, burnout, perfectionism, people‐pleasing, or major transitions, I can help you find ways in which you hold can bridge the gap between where you are now and where you want to be.

Welcome! I specialize in providing care through evidence-based therapies tailored to your unique needs. My approach combines compassion, collaboration, and creativity to support healing and growth in a safe and affirming space.

I provide a welcoming environment for individuals of all identities. I have specialized knowledge in working with LGBTQ+ individuals and offering education on harm reduction practices.
