Tim Harlos MA LLPC

Our lives are stories that we are coauthoring with the Divine author. My goal in counseling is to come alongside my clients to explore their stories as well as to assist them in making positive changes for a healthier well-being. As we create a trusting relationship, my unique giftedness of curiosity will help us explore those areas in which we have decided to work on together. No matter what diagnosis or issues you are facing, the best resources you have are your relationships. Therefore, relationships are key, not only in this office, but also in your familial, social, and career life.

 

In a story from ancient times, a woman named Hagar was a victim of abuse, cast out, and alone. In her isolation she cried for help, and she was heard, understood for who she was, and “seen”, probably for the first time in her life. As we explore your story, I want you to be heard, understood and seen for who you are body, mind and spirit, so that you can see that your story matters.

 

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two adult children, and camping in our newly restored travel trailer. I also enjoy adventurous activities including hiking, scuba diving, snorkeling, biking, and kayaking.
