Tim Boston (he/him)

I help clients discover their own sense of self in the context of interrelated personal, familial, social and ecological systems by gaining self-acceptance, authenticity, and a deeper trust in the way their lives flow.

In using cognitive behavioural tools together with mindfulness meditative practices, I offer pathways for clients to learn self-consultation skills that heighten meta-cognitive awareness, acceptance of negative thought patterns, and the benefits of decentering their negative thoughts/feelings, allowing the mind to shift from an automatic thought pattern to conscious emotional processing.

As a holistic therapist, I see you as a system within a complex web of larger systems that either address or ameliorate the psychological, familial, societal, ethical, spiritual, biophysical, as well as ecological dimensions of your health and illness.

I will draw upon a variety of therapeutic modalities to help you personally grow through healthier relationships, lower stress, improved mental/physical health, increased productivity, a greater sense of success, improved peace of mind, higher resiliency, and a deeper, sustainable sense of well-being and happiness.

I will suggest coping strategies that involve cognitive and behavioral mechanisms aimed at making an active response to that which might stress you, directly changing the negative emotions associated with it. This category includes strategies such as planning, taking specific action, seeking support, positively reappraising a situation, and/or acceptance.

I will show you sustainable and healthy paths to alleviate symptoms and feelings of worry.
