About me
“Everyone’s childhood plays itself out.” Our first understanding of ourselves comes from the first people we know. Psychologically known as our sense of Self or Agency, the other relationships we participate in tend to reflect those aspects of ourselves previously learned. I specialize in successfully treating the presenting symptoms of childhood trauma as well as those who suffer from often self-limiting thoughts regarding substance abuse, social and intrapersonal anxieties, clinical, situational and abandonment depression. I would also include the often self-sabotaging and socially unacceptable unresolved rage. Licensed in the states of California and Arizona as a Marriage & Family Therapist, I am privileged to work with a variety of high profile, highly intelligent and uniquely talented people, who, due to a lifetime of psychological, spiritual and philosophical pain are often the last to be aware of their authenticity as their true value.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session together, you can expect that I will provide active and empathic listening. In order to establish and build rapport and trust, I will attempt to communicate and establish meaning (or interpret) what you discuss throughout the session. I may also provide psychoeducation to you regarding the potential origin of your presenting problem. "Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished."
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Depending on the kind (or unkind) of education you experienced, truly knowing yourself may still be lost to you. Utilizing a professional yet still emotionally intimate relationship established between you and I, can provide real-world support to you as you do the internal work for yourself, w/yourself AND without feeling that you have to do it all by yourself. Alone.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
As an lgBtq and POC mental health specialist, my core values—equity, authenticity, cultural humility, and community empowerment—are central to every aspect of my practice. Those with childhood neglect, narcissistic parenting or co-dependent relationship histories have found strong connection with my intuitive, creative and down-to-earth personality and style. I believe mental health care must be trauma-informed and culturally responsive, especially for individuals who have historically been marginalized or pathologized by mainstream systems. "Greif is love without an outlet." "Nature does not rush, yet everything is accomplished." * I am currently only working with adult individuals. *

My treatment methods
Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP)
AEDP psychotherapy is an approach that seeks to alleviate patients’ psychological suffering by helping them process the overwhelming emotions associated with trauma in a way that facilitates corrective emotional and relational experiences that mobilize positive changes in our neuroplastic brains.
Attachment-based
Using the relationship between therapist and client, we explore how your childhood experiences might impact your ability to form meaningful bonds as an adult.
Psychodynamic
Using the relationship established between you and I, I can provide feedback that can show you and support how it is for you to be in relationship with others.
Psychoeducation
Psychoeducation is a therapy intervention that involves the therapist providing their client with information about their diagnosis, symptoms, or the method of treatment used. It is more than simply sharing information with the client; psychoeducation refers to a structured and specific method of providing knowledge.

I've seen several therapists over the years, and Tim has by far been the most impactful. I'm looking forward to continue working with him.

Tim always comes from a place of authenticity and open mindedness when listening to my shares and thoughts. I feel like I can be myself and he offers his perspective and some tools for a way to work through any current feelings or troubles that are on my mind - tools as in practices that can work in real-time toward solutions! He is also very light-hearted, which takes the heaviness out of any conversation that could be heavy on my heart. So glad I found Tim and grateful for the support!
