Dr. Timmons provides individual therapy at LifeStance Health to support clients facing a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and grief. She creates a warm, safe environment where clients can explore their emotions, develop coping strategies, and build a stronger foundation for personal growth and well-being.
Dr. Timmons brings a deep understanding of the unique needs of transitional-aged youth and those navigating identity exploration, gender-related concerns, and multicultural stressors. She is especially passionate about working with LGBTQ+ individuals and provides gender-affirmative medical readiness evaluations as part of her affirming, inclusive approach.

With a strong commitment to supporting diverse populations, Dr. Timmons specializes in multicultural therapy and is highly attuned to how cultural background, intersectionality, and lived experiences influence mental health. Whether supporting someone through a major life transition, helping a client manage ADHD symptoms, or guiding individuals through identity-related challenges, Dr. Timmons offers clinically informed care rooted in respect, dignity, and authenticity.
Outside of her professional work, Dr. Timmons enjoys reading, hosting game nights, solving puzzles, candle making, and learning new crafts. These creative outlets reflect her curiosity and joy in self-expression—qualities that enrich her therapeutic presence and connect her more deeply to her clients’ own journeys.
