Another screaming match with your partner just ended. You’re not even sure what it was about this time. Lately, you can’t seem to be around each other without it turning into a fight. It wasn’t always this way. There was a time when your relationship was rewarding and fulfilling. But something changed. Now, you spend all of your time just trying to avoid arguments. You want desperately to reconnect with the person you fell in love with, but it feels like you’re speaking different languages. You’re not ready to give up on this relationship, but things just keep getting worse. It all feels so hopeless. There must be some other way.

The transitions and stressors of life can be overwhelming, often leading to disconnection and isolation. I offer a space of compassion and empathy for those who find themselves in such pain. I understand it is a tremendous privilege to be brought into someone else's story, so I take great care to listen with tenderness and warmth. Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all journey; that's why my heart for therapy is to come alongside each of my clients to collaborate with them on their path to healing.

My name is Kathy Taylor and I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist working with clients statewide in California via telehealth. I work with adolescents, adults, and couples specializing in trauma, anxiety, and depression. I utilize a psychodynamic approach which means that symptoms such as anxiety and depression, typically are indicators of underlying emotional suffering that may require attention. My role is to empathically pay attention and tend to those difficult experiences as one tells their story.

Building momentum towards change and turning it into action can be difficult. It can even feel impossible. We all have moments of doubt, self-criticism, and feelings of emotional unrest. Whether it is rooted in infancy, adulthood, or anywhere in between, emotional pain from the past can very easily reverberate into our present and future. Therapy is a means towards forging a new relationship with self and the larger system we operate in. Whether you are struggling with post-traumatic stress, addiction, building intimacy in relationships, responding to emotions, or the stress of being human, it is important to know you are relatable.

No one should have to suffer pain alone, and having the empathic support of a safe, objective, and caring professional can open your mind to important insights that are otherwise tough to come by. I strive to foster a collaborative therapy environment in which my patients have an outlet to express parts of their mind that they have not yet put to words. Expression of these inner thoughts and feelings can facilitate relief from stress that can otherwise manifest in painful psychological and physiological symptoms.
