Work with Tim

If you want to make a major change in your life and feel stuck, this is the work I do. Often the change is about self-compassion or healing trauma. Sometimes it is a pattern in a relationship, a memory that will not settle, anxiety or depression, or a sense that life should feel more alive than it does. It can be about anything.

At the beginning we define the specific change you want to see and how we will both know when you have it. Then we find what is in the way and work on it directly: in the body, in imagination, and with self-compassion. Therapy is successful only to the extent that it changes your life in the present.

I work with individuals and couples. Sessions are 50 minutes, $320, in person at 5480 College Avenue in Oakland or by video. I do not bill insurance; I provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement. Six-hour intensives are available by arrangement.

If you'd like personalized guidance to help deepen your practice or work through a specific obstacle, I offer this as well.

I also offer consultation to therapists: on cases, and on bringing self-compassion and Buddhist practice into your clinical work. Same format and fee as therapy.
