Ready for Positive Change? I am passionate about helping individuals rediscover their footing after a late in life ADHD diagnosis. Common areas of focus in this work include processing grief over lost time, building up self-compassion drowned out by an unforgiving inner critic, skill building, and so much more. I work most often with grief, anxiety, depression, stress and burnout, relationship challenges and more.
The clients I see are sensing a shift in their perspective, and are feeling the need to grow and evolve. It is an honor to collaborate with clients to help build awareness of their unique contribution to the world!

I work from a client centered approach as the basis for our work together. We can then decide on which of the empirically supported approaches (or more likely which combination of approaches) is the best fit for you and your situation. The basis is a non-judgmental stance to what you face and designing a tailored, you-specific, empirically supported approach to help you gain a better understanding of your situation and more adaptive ways of managing or coping. I borrow from various approaches including client-centered, Cognitive-behavioral, Acceptance and Commitment, Mindfulness-based, Emotion focused, and insight oriented.

Maybe you struggle with constant guilt, anxiety, feeling disconnected, struggling with ADHD, your job, parenting, balancing all your responsibilities, or just not knowing what you want. Perhaps you struggle with not feeling good enough, or you often find yourself putting everyone else’s needs first- even if it comes at the expense of your needs being compromised. You might find it hard to accept help, rest, or ask for what you want due to fears of inadequacy, rejection, or guilt. These patterns may be lifelong or recent. Either way, you don’t have to figure this out alone- it's too much for one person to carry alone.

Welcome! I am a Clinical Psychologist specializing in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. I have 20+ years of experience within both the public and private practice settings, with extensive experience treating depression and anxiety disorders. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a very collaborative process, with a focus on understanding your difficulties and finding strategies to make the changes you want.

Do you struggle with the question, “Tell me about yourself”? Do you find that negative self-talk, self-criticism, or shame can show up under stress? Growing up in stressful or unsupportive environments can sometimes impact how we view ourselves, others and the world. No matter what your age, reclaiming yourself is possible. My name is Tayler, and I specialize in supporting adults in exploring and embracing their identities. I have noticed that negative self-talk, difficulties with self-image, identity crisis, and other concerns with self-esteem can be rooted in past pain or struggles from the past.

People are wonderfully complex beings. It is rare that our suffering and/or distress comes from only one funnel or area of life (although that sometimes is the case!). This is why I believe in taking a holistic approach to therapy. The consideration of nutrition, personal purpose and beliefs, sleep, physical exercise, and social connections can make a huge difference when designing a treatment plan. You are the expert of your own life. My job is to ask meaningful questions, to collect and synthesize information, and work closely with you to design your treatment journey. Let's get started!

Life doesn’t come with a manual—just messy emotions, unexpected losses, and moments where it all feels too much. When "it" gets bigger than us, it becomes our story and then becomes our pain. But we press on; we mask; we justify; we convince and we suffer in silence. Sometimes we may even find short-term solitude by coping in ways that hurt us or those we love like abusing substances, infidelity or not living to our true potential. If you're tired of holding it all together alone, therapy can be the place where you lay it down, sort it out, and begin again. You don’t have to do this by yourself.

In SMART therapy clients are directed to REGULATE through MOVEMENT and as a result START TALKING so problem solving and healing can happen. Therapy is provided in a specially designed room with specialized equipment, such as arial swings, spinning, weighted blankets, balance beams, fitness balls, person sized pea-pod, body socks, dolphin pillows, and safe cubby holes, and tents. Movement, rest and safety is used to support natural ways of regulating bodies and emotions, facilitate parent-child attachment-building and allow for embodied processing of hurtful and traumatic experiences. It is not at all like traditional play therapy.

Many of us are unaware of how our family influences, past traumas, and experiences continue to create conflict in our existing relationships. The resulting behaviours are often self-defeating, painful, and negatively impact others. My own lived experiences and the validation of my approaches create an empathetic, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment that allows you to experience a new positive sense of self and others.

I have 27 years' experience as a psychologist. I specialize in Child and Adolescent therapy, Parenting therapy, Caregiver-Child therapy, and Adult therapy. Therapy is an interactive process. I seek to guide another to develop new relational patterns with themselves and others, help the unknown become known, understand how the past may affect today’s behaviors, process emotions and experiences, provide new insight and perspective, develop skills, improve emotional regulation, build strengths, and increase self-compassion. With children and adolescents, I use art, play-therapy, sand-tray, bibliotherapy and games in practice

Making the decision to start therapy is a meaningful step, especially when you’re dealing with the weight of past trauma and difficult experiences. I work with alongside my clients to explore how early and repeated relational wounds continue to shape their present lives, including their emotions, behaviours, relationships, and sense of self. My approach is trauma-informed and grounded in building a safe, consistent therapeutic relationship. Together, we’ll work to make sense of your experiences, understand survival patterns that may no longer serve you, and strengthen your capacity for regulation, connection, and lasting change.
