Dr. Timothy M Tays

I am a licensed clinical psychologist practicing in Scottsdale, Arizona. I specialize in treating anxiety disorders (e.g., obsessive-compulsive, phobias, panic, trauma, social anxiety) and depression. I integrate cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy (CBT), which is particularly effective and long lasting with anxiety, with an interpersonal psychodynamic approach, depending on each individual's needs. I also treat impression management (e.g, acting like a "chameleon"). I also am trained to work with postpartum depression and anxiety.

I provide an empathetic and thoughtful approach to treatment, because I believe my clients don't care how much I know until they know how much I care. I collaborate with clients and provide tools for quick symptom relief, empowering clients to maintain well-being long after treatment ends.
