I appreciate that Tim is able to walk alongside me, and is able to show empathy to my issues.

Tim is great! He’s patient and a great listener. He asks all the right questions to make me think about situations in ways I otherwise wouldn’t. Grateful for his expertise.

Working with Tim has been a completely positive experience. Each session he meets me where I am, with questions and suggestions focused on my primary issues for the day and overall. There are times when prior to a session I feel like I'm not into it today. I don't know if I've ever mentioned that to him, but those tend to become some of the most beneficial sessions.
My experience with Tim and Better Help have been invaluable. I have and will continue to highly recommend the service.

Tim is great at keeping me grounded and my perspectives aligned in the right way to better learn about why I do things the way I do. He really listens to me, and gives me personal guidance and not just cookie cutter suggestions. We all know to drink more water, and thankfully Tim doesn’t remind me to do the basics all the time but gives me tailored feedback and guidance.
