Great to meet you!

I’m Tim Briggs, LICSW, and I have more than 13 years of experience in behavioral health. I created MMH Counseling Services to give men a place for honest conversation, practical support, and real-world solutions.

My focus is helping adult men deal with stress, improve relationships, communicate more effectively, navigate major life changes, and feel more confident in everyday life. I also help fathers strengthen their relationships with their children and become more connected, consistent, and confident as parents.

I offer virtual, in-home, and in-nature sessions for adult men in Massachusetts. The goal is simple: honest talk, useful strategies, and practical solutions that make sense in real life.

Men’s Mental Health Matters.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative, conversational, and focused on practical change. I believe clients are the experts on their own lives, and my role is to help them better understand their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships while developing strategies that support their individual goals.

I use a strengths-based approach and draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, DBT-informed skills, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and solution-focused therapy. Sessions may include identifying patterns, improving communication, developing healthier coping skills, managing difficult emotions, and breaking larger concerns into realistic and manageable steps.

I strive to provide a relaxed, respectful, and nonjudgmental environment. I will listen and offer support, but I will also provide honest feedback and encourage clients to consider new perspectives. Therapy is tailored to each person rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other, talk about what brought you in, and identify what you would like to change or improve. Some initial paperwork and assessment information will need to be completed, but it will not take up the entire session.

There will still be plenty of time for conversation, questions, and beginning to talk about practical next steps. My goal is for you to leave the first session feeling comfortable, understood, and clear about where we go from there.
