About me
I am a marriage and family therapist licensed in California, and I have over 10 years of experience as a psychotherapist. Over the years I have been trained in many evidence-based therapy modalities that help me to be effective in treating depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, and anger management. I also helped many people who have experienced trauma with a technique called Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy.
I believe in empowering an individual's autonomy, meaning that the client is responsible and capable in making their own decisions. I treat client's with respect and equip them to meet life's challenges. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, narrative, solution-focused, and psychodynamic counseling depending on the client's needs.
I can also provide Christian, biblically-rooted counseling to those who want therapy from this perspective. I will offer judgment-free therapy, especially for those often "taboo" topics (i.e. sexuality, pornography, ministry burnout, marital problems, pressure to be perfect). I will empower you to reach your own conclusions, while being full of "truth and grace."
I believe the role of a therapist is to equip you, and then "work myself out of a job." That means I believe you have the power to reach your goals and find positive support!
I look forward to working with you!

Tim Crosby did an excellent job providing counseling services. I felt as though he was supportive of what I was going through and offered objective advice. More importantly, he empowered me to create change while not minimizing the experiences I shared. I would recommend him to others in a heart beat. Great job!

Tim has been exceptional for me. I've improved so much and I'm able to cope so much better. I will be forever grateful to Tim for all of his help. He has given me several tools to help me with my PTSD and has helped me expand and better my existing support group.
