Great to meet you!

Hello, My name is Tim McShane APN. I have worked as a psychiatric nurse practitioner for the past five years. I have practiced and cared for clients that have been inpatient and outpatient. I am trained to help clients with all types mental health from depression, anxiety, bipolar, schizophrenia, PTSD, and ADHD.

My approach to therapy

I provide compassionate, evidence-based care to individuals experiencing a range of mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, schizophrenia, and ADHD. My approach combines thorough assessment, individualized treatment planning, and ongoing support. I use a mix of therapeutic interventions and medication management (when appropriate) to help clients reduce symptoms, improve daily functioning, and build resilience.

For depression and anxiety, I focus on helping clients regain motivation, manage stress, and develop healthy coping skills. With bipolar disorder, I work closely with clients to stabilize mood, reduce relapse risk, and promote long-term wellness. For PTSD, I provide trauma-informed care that prioritizes safety, trust, and empowerment. With schizophrenia, I aim to reduce psychotic symptoms, support medication adherence, and improve overall quality of life. For ADHD, I help clients improve focus, organization, and self-regulation through behavioral strategies and treatment options.

Across all conditions, I emphasize collaboration, education, and a supportive therapeutic relationship, so clients feel heard, understood, and empowered in their journey toward recovery.

What you can expect from me

  • A sense of relief and support – Clients leave knowing they’ve been heard and understood in a safe, judgment-free space.
  • Personalized guidance – Each session provides tools and strategies tailored to their unique symptoms and goals.
  • Clarity and insight – Clients gain a better understanding of their condition, what may trigger symptoms, and how to manage them more effectively.
  • Practical coping skills – Whether it’s techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood swings, improve focus, or handle stress, clients walk away with usable strategies they can apply right away.
  • Hope and motivation – Sessions are designed to foster a sense of progress, helping clients feel more confident about their ability to heal and move forward.
  • Collaboration in care – Clients leave with a plan they’ve helped shape, whether that involves therapy goals, medication adjustments, or lifestyle changes.
  • Consistency and direction – Each meeting builds on the last, creating a structured path toward stability, resilience, and improved quality of life.
