Our team at West Wing - Olympia

Hey, I’m Tim. I have recently moved to Washington in 2024 after spending a year in the West of Ireland. I find meaning and fulfillment in pursuing therapeutic connections for the purpose of providing a space where all my clients can feel seen, heard, and valued. I developed my passion for helping individuals from my personal experiences working with adolescents in inner city Chicago, volunteering with medical and music teams for both earthquake victims in Haiti and Burmese Refugees in Thailand, as well as mentoring in a Neurodivergent program in Denver. I am passionate about connection and processing how relationships and events impact areas of identity, emotional regulation, familial attachment, human induced trauma, and life transitions. I am client centered and strive to provide safety, acceptance, and empowerment for all my clients from unique backgrounds and experiences. I incorporate CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Somatic therapy.

I love to work with adolescents 10+, college students, adults with childhood trauma, and parents with children still at home.

I have a Masters in Science in Mental Health Counseling from Prescott College in Prescott, Arizona. I completed my clinical internship at Behavioral Health Resources - Children, Youth and Family Division in Olympia WA. 

I was born and raised in Olympia by a union nurse and a community college math teacher. I worked for many years as a caregiver, supporting elders and people with disabilities and bring a disability justice and anti-oppression lens to the work I do with clients. 

I serve adults and young people experiencing different life stressors, personal challenges, and health concerns.  Whatever you bring to session, I meet you with unconditional positive regard to support you in building the life you want.  In addition to other competencies, I have experience with depression, anxiety, Bipolar I & II, and PTSD.
