Tim Mariels, Licensed Professional Counselor

I am an experienced Licensed Professional Counselor and EMDR specialist dedicated to collaboratively helping clients find growth, self-discovery, and healing in a safe, trauma-informed environment that leads to personal well-being and optimal functioning.

My focus is helping people move towards well-being by working together to get you through the most difficult times or helping you with fine-tuning your personal development to become the best version of yourself. I offer a variety of services that combine a trauma-informed person-centered approach with mindfulness training directed at integrating the self. Services range from: Attachement-Focused EMDR for single incident or complex trauma, working through grief and loss, anxiety, and depression, relationship work, leadership and performance development in both sports and business, personal development, basketball therapy for kids, and mindfulness training.

I facilitate changing unskillful thought patterns and behaviors by helping you learn to pay attention to your moment-to-moment experience without judgment and an attitude of openness. This allows you to focus on identifying and differentiating internal thought patterns, feelings, and body sensations, which allows you to gain a deeper understanding of these different aspects of the self. In our sessions you will be empowered, respected and trusted as we work together to explore your inner self in a safe, supportive and confidential environment. I have found that effort is an important component of therapy and weekly sessions are most effective.
