Timothy Higdon

Timothy Higdon, MS, LPC, has been working to help people build strong relationships throughout his 35-year career as a therapist and counselor. And he is even more passionate today about his mission—guiding couples safely through relationship obstacles to the lasting change and deep connection for which they yearn.

Tim and professional partner Norene Gonsiewski, have taken experience from over 60 cumulative years as relationship therapists and workshop presenters, and real life as spouses and parents, to write their book, Rock Solid Relationship: Seven Keys to Restore Your Connection and Make Your Love Last.

 

Currently, Tim is co-owner of 3Rivers Center for Relationship in Bend, OR and Portland Relationship Center. He has been a treatment and executive director of a residential treatment center and was instrumental in founding several youth and family programs.

 

At the core of Tim's work is Imago Relationship Therapy (IRT). Over the years, he has helped hundreds of couples and individuals using IRT tools. As an Imago Workshop Presenter for individuals and couples and a Certified Imago Consultant for professionals and educators, Tim is engaging and enthusiastic. His style is down-to-earth, practical, and approachable.

Using the tools he teaches, Tim has been happily married to his wife, Susan, for 32 years. Together they have raised two wonderful adult children. Music feeds his soul, and he still finds time to fly fish for steelhead and trout in the Northwest's most beautiful rivers.
