Timothy Spory

As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Tim has experience in helping with depression, anxiety, anger, relationship issues, family conflict, trauma, and a variety of other difficulties that make life challenging at times. Having worked previously in a community care setting with two mental health agencies, Tim has gained valuable knowledge and experience that he employs to provide quality care to the people he serves. Tim has worked with a variety of age groups including preteens and adolescents (ages 10-17) as well as adults, couples, and families.

Tim’s work is rooted in a family systems model that follows closely the work of Virginia Satir and her model for working with families. Tim uses this model to focus on how individuals, members of families, and couples are coping, and can better cope, with the challenges they face on a day to day basis. Tim is also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to address trauma and related symptoms.

Tim is skilled at helping individuals, families, and couples to get a clearer picture of issues that they encounter in their relationships and everyday situations. Tim uses his valuable experience in systems work to assist clients with identifying new ways of approaching sensitive and difficult aspects of life and relationships. Tim’s belief that people always cope in the best way they know at any given time allows him to work in a way that validates what is happening in client’s lives, while offering a caring environment to explore new directions for life.

Away from work, Tim enjoys spending his time hiking with family, visiting historical sites, driving his Jeep, watching movies, reading good books, and enjoying good food.
