Tim Masters , LCSW

Tim Masters is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with six years of clinical experience and licensure across Wyoming, Maine, and Ohio. He has worked with people facing a range of concerns including stress and anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, motivation and self-esteem challenges, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and psychotic disorders. His practice centers on treating each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion while creating a care plan tailored to the individual’s needs and goals.

Tim frames therapy as a collaborative process that asks for commitment and effort from both the therapist and the client. He emphasizes personalized strategies rather than one-size-fits-all approaches, and he supports clients as they take practical steps toward recovery and improved daily functioning. He looks forward to partnering with individuals who are ready to begin that work and to help them navigate the path ahead.

Evidence-Based Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Tim Masters draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to guide online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to shift them - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood-related challenges. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, making it useful for intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and coping with trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. He works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan over time as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage in care, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care during life changes, and access licensed professionals from different locations while still receiving structured, evidence-based support.
