I'm Tim Welch, LPCC — a licensed professional clinical counselor providing telehealth counseling throughout Ohio.
I work with adults in Newark, Heath, Granville, Licking County, and statewide. If your nervous system is running hot—anxiety, panic, overwhelm, shutdown, cravings, or that "I can't turn my brain off" feeling—we'll build a plan that fits your real life.
We name what's happening, reduce the noise, and build traction—without shame, without fluff.
You don't have to hit bottom to get help.
You just have to be ready for something to change.
Most people don't walk in with "one thing."
It's usually a mix:
Stress ramps up → sleep drops → thinking gets darker → emotions spike → coping gets sloppy.
My job is to help you understand the pattern and start changing it—step by step.
• Addiction recovery and relapse prevention
• Anxiety, panic, and chronic worry
• Trauma and PTSD
• ADHD and executive functioning challenges
• Depression and burnout
• Emotional regulation and overwhelm
• Relationship stress and life transitions
Therapy is tailored and practical.
Sessions often blend CBT, DBT-informed tools, Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed approaches depending on what you need that week.
We keep it grounded:
What's happening.
Why it's happening.
What you can do next.
Most people don't come to counseling because they lack insight.
They come because they feel stuck.
They've read the books.
Listened to the podcasts.
Thought about the problem a thousand times.
Yet the same patterns keep showing up.
My approach is direct, practical, and focused on real change.
Together we identify what's happening, why it's happening, and what to do next.
Clients often choose to work with me because they want:
• Straightforward conversations without judgment or games
• Support for addiction, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, depression, and emotional overwhelm
• Practical tools they can use immediately in everyday life
• Accountability that feels supportive, not shaming
• A counselor who understands that lasting change takes both honesty and action
No labels.
No shame.
No hype.
Just forward.
Yes. Online counseling can be highly effective when therapy is consistent, structured, and practical.
Addiction, anxiety, trauma/PTSD, ADHD, depression, burnout, emotional regulation, and life transitions.
• Clear goals and a plan you can actually follow
• Support that's warm, honest, and direct
• Tools for anxiety, cravings, triggers, and emotional overload
• Practical next steps between sessions
That's normal.
Start with one appointment.
You'll leave with more clarity than you came in with, and we'll decide next steps from there.
Choose the scheduling link that fits your insurance coverage and schedule your first appointment.

actually iCAN App
Therapy is the main work.
actually iCAN is a free support tool I built to help people stay connected to their goals between appointments—especially when cravings, stress, or old patterns start getting loud.
It is not a replacement for counseling.
It is simply a practical resource for the space between sessions.
I provide telehealth counseling throughout Ohio, including Newark, Heath, Granville, and Licking County.
If you're looking for a counselor who is direct, steady, practical, and skill-based—welcome.
