About Timothy

Timothy Park is a BACP therapist with 16 years of experience practising in the United Kingdom. He works with people facing addictions, relationship and family difficulties, anxiety, depression, trauma and a broad range of intimacy and identity concerns including LGBT issues and codependency.

He starts by helping people clarify what brought them to therapy. Sessions focus on spotting barriers to change, setting achievable goals, and building coping skills. Timothy aims for practical tools that people can use between sessions rather than abstract talk.

Timothy uses approaches drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Attachment-Based work and client-centred practice. He prefers straightforward conversations that look at patterns - for example, people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or relying on others to regulate moods - and then practises small experiments to try different ways of relating.

He also supports people with issues around eating, sleep, anger, career stresses, grief, chronic health conditions and neurodiversity such as autism or ADHD. He will talk through how past relationships and family of origin patterns influence current choices.

Sessions aim to be collaborative and down-to-earth. Timothy helps people identify what matters to them, set realistic steps, and learn skills they can use in everyday life. If someone wants to book he asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.

How sessions work

How Timothy uses evidence-based approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small committed steps towards those values. It can help when anxiety, depression or avoidance stop someone living the life they want.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression and problematic behaviours including addictive patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Timothy will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and jointly decide which methods to try. That collaborative process includes trying techniques in session and adapting them to what feels useful.

Confirm the current session formats before booking as they are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove the need to travel. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use remote sessions to support ongoing practice, weekly skill-building and problem-solving that fits around everyday life.
