Hello, my name is Tim Taft. I am a licensed social worker in Washington State with 3 years of professional work experience. I graduated from the University of Washington in 2018 with a Master of Social Work, and since then have been providing mental health services and therapeutic interventions for adults.
I particularly focus on helping clients with issues related to motivation, self esteem, and confidence, but I have experience with a broad range of personal and interpersonal challenges. I am glad that you are here - you are taking the steps to find some extra joy and light in your life, which is often both challenging and rewarding. For myself, I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
I try and respond promptly to any messages within 24 hours, with the exceptions of weekends, during which time I will try to get back to you promptly the following Monday.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
