Tim Abendroth, LMFT

My therapeutic style is very patient-centered and follows an interpersonal process flow. It is also pragmatic, inviting, warm, and empathetic. I really focus on empowerment, building self-efficacy, and giving tools that are tangible to patients. I heavily emphasize patient rights and empower patients to show up in a way that is authentic to them. I have experience treating anxiety (general, performance, social), some forms of OCD, depression, mood disorders, interpersonal, family, and relationship concerns, attachment, identity exploration (gender & sexual identity), sexual dysfunction, sex therapy, and trauma-related disorders. I have also worked with patients to better enhance their understanding of psycho-somatic experiencing. Past patients have appreciated how I actively listen, effectively paraphrase, and show that I am present with them in their treatment. They have also valued my ability to, 'bring things back around' when multiple topics, concerns, tools, or other information is being processed, provided, and explored. They respect my ability to teach and communicate how to use tools in different ways, as a means to help them understand how it best applies to them.
