Timothy Pittman has been my therapist for many months now and I believe my progress has been tangible even from my own perspective. I've been suffering from anxiety for possibly decades, it's difficult to say. I've noticed I've been recently able to make some steps in life that previously seemed impossible. Such as initiating a social interaction that nobody asked me to or saying 'no' to things I actually didn't want or telling someone what my special needs are even when I'm embarrassed about it. Those are big deals for me, because they've been holding me down in life... often denying me services and options in life that others take for granted. I'm glad I have Timothy to talk to. His help and expertise is much appreciated and I am grateful to him.

Timothy has helped me see the patterns in my thinking. Before therapy I've been stuck in my fears, sometimes unable to leave my room for days, except for work. I've seen progress in my behavior. I've achieved going out and be able to talk to strangers, not blame myself when someone is rude to me, finish my new CV and resume applying for better jobs without quitting my current job. I've retained my income while still making steps towards improving my career. Timothy has helped me make meaningful progress in stepping away from a spiral of negative emotions and away from negative self talk. I'm better able to recognize and handle negative thoughts that I've had for many years. I would gladly recommend Timothy.

  • Male
  • LCMHC

I have been in the mental health and substance abuse field for over 20 years. I have worked with clients with a variety of needs ranging from depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and substance abuse issues. I work with adolescent and adult populations. My therapy approach is Family Therapy, Cognitive , Solution Focus Therapy, Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing . I will explore the client’s feelings, develop trust, and provide empathy while helping the client's understand problems of their past. I will also assist the client in understanding and modifying behaviors that are harmful or unsuccessful and assist them in making positive life changes. Negative and irrational beliefs, which provoke unacceptable behavior, client's will assist in developing behaviors that are more appropriate and increasing self-esteem.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I'm happy with my therapist. I was hesitant to start therapy because I was afraid of what it ment to start therapy and because I had trust issues. Timothy is perfect for me because he's not involved in local central European politics and listens to my own experience of it. This allowed me to open up and get to many issues I was dealing with. I believe I was facing a difficult uphill battle before starting, but am already feeling better. Some actions I found impossible before now seem within my grasp. Some fears that overwhelmed me before, now seem more clownish than petrifying. Timothy has shown respect, diligence and competency. I feel heard and like I can progress at a pace I'm comfortable with while still keeping sensible goals in sight and being well informed about what my mind is doing. Overall I would recommend Timothy Pittman as a therapist to anyone I care for.
