I am passionate about helping people. I believe strongly that the foundation of successful therapy is having a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients, and that each one must believe that my office is a safe place to be authentic and honest about their struggles. This is the basis for being able to treat the underlying issue, and not just the symptom. I am a Christian counselor, and trust God to lead me with His wisdom to help each person. I combine this with sound, evidence based therapeutic techniques/systems to help my clients find true freedom!

Hey, I'm Taylor! I specialize in PTSD, anxiety, and complex trauma. I also really enjoy working with couples. My approach to therapy is pretty simple: just be real. I don't play the "all-knowing therapist" role - I'm here as a person who wants to connect and support you just as you are. When we're both our true selves, the real work happens. So let's make this your space to talk, laugh, process, breathe, or whatever you need most!

Counseling is a person-centered approach to healing, & it takes courage to seek out help when you feel like circumstances aren't going your way. My approach to helping people is to recognize individual strengths that can help them affect positive change in their lives. I am passionate about watching my clients thrive and succeed in reaching their goals in life, & am just a tool to help guide & encourage them when the path doesn't seem as straight as they planned. It's about people helping people and that's the vision that I have for myself.

In my role as a counselor, I support individuals who have experienced trauma or pain in their lives. Much of my work focuses on processing trauma, building awareness, and practicing doing something different. I have a special interest in assisting clients through relationship concerns, personality disorders, and dysfunctional families. The people that I work with often feel stuck in unhealthy patterns of behaving, thinking, and feeling. Counseling offers you the intentional space to explore those stuck points and build new patterns to sustain a satisfying life.

At times, we may find ourselves lost on the journey of life questioning who we are and how we got here. I would love to join with you on your path as we sort through what is and what may have been. I have found that as we sift through previous life experiences, the thoughts, feelings and beliefs that have been developed about the world, self and others tend to make sense. I hope that I can then provide a space to examine the roots of our life, honor these roots, and then integrate them into your current framework. It is one of my life's greatest honors to explore our stories and reprocess how they have impacted us.
