Getting to know Christopher Timms
Reaching out for therapy can be one of the hardest steps, and I'm honored you're considering sharing that journey with me. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, stuck, navigating a major life transition, recovering from trauma, or simply trying to better understand yourself, my goal is to provide a space where you feel heard, respected, and challenged in a way that promotes meaningful growth.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with experience working with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, grief, relationship difficulties, and life transitions. I have worked in residential treatment and outpatient settings with individuals facing both everyday stressors and complex mental health concerns.
My approach is collaborative, practical, and individualized. I integrate evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness, somatic awareness, and trauma-informed care. I believe that while understanding the past is important, lasting change comes from developing new ways of thinking, relating, and responding in the present. Together, we'll identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck while building practical tools that help you move toward the life you want to create.
Before becoming a therapist, I served in the U.S. Army and later worked as both a teacher and school counselor. Those experiences taught me the value of resilience, authenticity, and meeting people where they are. They continue to shape how I approach therapy—with respect, compassion, and the belief that every person has the capacity for growth, even during life's most difficult seasons.
