Is life scary sometimes? Is it hard for you to have the confidence to tackle the big things in life? Do you sometimes notice a younger part of yourself that needs comfort? I help those of you who suffer from unresolved traumas both big and small. I pull from my experiences of mother, grandmother, wife, widow, sister, daughter. Together we can explore the different parts of self and how our roles and relationships affect us.

Hi, my name is Taylor Dasher. My ideal client is someone who entrusts me with their time, personal life experiences, and allowing me to be a part of their journey. Life in general maneuvers in unpredictable directions-up, down, even diagonally! Sometimes it is hard to process those directions and adapt to them. Despite the incidents that occur in life, what can we do to adapt to it while living a comfortable life that is fit for us? What can we do to not live life based on the "problem." Let's work together to find that starting point, decipher the presenting problem and make it to the end goal!

I am a bilingual therapist who has a deep passion to see people experience the best this life has to offer! When you aren't experiencing that, I would love to create a safe, non-judgmental place to explore what's happening within yourself and relationships that could be contributing to your discomfort. I have traveled, studied, and worked abroad and love to work with diverse populations. So, if you're experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, or whatever range of other emotions and issues, give me a call to set up a free 15 minute consultation. I'd love to see if we can work together!

I understand that there is not one particular mold or pattern that fits every issue or concern, one life does not fit all. I make every attempt to ensure that you are in a comfortable environment free from conviction. I feel that you should be able to come to a safe place to explore every thought that one feels is necessary to assist with resolving issues. You should also not feel judged or condemned for thoughts or actions that have been socially deemed as wrong. What really matters is that you have taken the initiative to receive help sorting what could not be resolved on your own.

Putting our thoughts and feelings into words isn’t always easy to do. Are you the person who responds with, “I’m okay” or “I’m good” when deep down you’re thinking, “I’m not okay” or “I just want to feel better about things?”
