About Timothy
Dr. Timothy Tobin brings three decades of clinical work to his practice. He holds LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) and LCMHC (Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor) credentials and practices from Utah.
He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, and challenges tied to meaning or spiritual concerns. He also addresses issues like parenting, intimacy-related struggles, anger, self-esteem, and managing life changes. Dr.
Tobin often meets people who have experienced trauma, loss, or unusual events that are hard to explain.
Background and approach
He listens without judgment and works to make talking about difficult or confusing experiences easier. His approach is practical and straightforward, focusing on what someone wants to change and what steps feel doable. He uses methods drawn from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to fit different needs.
That can mean learning specific skills for mood or behavior, or spending time understanding what matters most to the person. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual. Over 30 years he has worked with a wide range of concerns, including addictions, bereavement, bipolar symptoms, compassion fatigue, and chronic illness.
He also supports people wrestling with attachment, family-of-origin issues, and forgiveness. The tone in sessions is respectful and calm, with emphasis on helping people find clearer ways forward. Dr.
Tobin offers online options and accepts international clients. He communicates in English and combines experience with a direct, supportive style to help people process painful events and make practical changes.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person first. The therapist creates space for someone to talk and helps them find their own solutions, which can be useful for grief, identity, or spiritual concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and patterns linked to addiction or coping with life changes.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. It can help when anger, overwhelm, or impulsive behaviors interfere with everyday life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help determine which methods fit best based on the person’s goals, needs, and preferences. Decisions are made together and can change as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options provide flexibility for people with busy schedules, caregiving duties, or mobility limits. Remote formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to use the type of contact that feels most comfortable while working through concerns.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
