About Timothy
Timothy "Tim" Nordstrom is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Montana with 30 years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and parenting concerns, career questions, addictions, grief, ADHD, and life changes. He also lists life purpose and coaching among his interests. Tim writes songs and sometimes brings music into his work.
Tim's style begins with listening. He spends time learning what matters to each person and what has already been tried. He then focuses on psychoeducation so both people understand what is happening and why. That groundwork sets a shared language for later steps.
He uses practical, evidence-based techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy. Mindfulness practices and dialectical behavior ideas appear in his sessions when they fit the situation. The work often involves learning new skills for managing stress and mood.
Tim has worked in clinics and schools, and he has done short-term work inside a medical practice to help patients improve quality of life in a few sessions. He has also supported people over longer periods in private practice and as a school social worker.
People who come to him can expect straightforward explanation of options, concrete tools to try between sessions, and collaborative planning about next steps. He invites questions and believes understanding the process is an important part of change.
Therapeutic approaches used online and how they help
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small committed actions that align with them. It can help when someone feels stuck or unsure about life purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen, explain options, and collaborate on which methods to try based on goals and preferences. Sessions often mix learning, practice, and planning together so the person can try things between meetings.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Many people find remote sessions useful for keeping momentum between in-person visits or when adjusting therapy to work and family schedules.
