My approach encourages individuals to explore meaning, become aware of their own possibilities and limitations, navigate the complexities and uncertainties of life, and learn to live authentically. I believe we all strive to find meaning in our existence and, as we learn to grow from our experiences, we can continue on a path of personal transformation. It is important to gain healthy insight, make changes, and create the futures you desire for yourself. Working through trauma, grief, pain, and fear will get you to the healthy place you were meant to be and fill you with hope as you become your whole healthy self.

“A life without cause is a life without effect.” Hello, my name is Taylor! I firmly believe that everyone has a UNIQUE purpose and skill set that makes them one of a kind. Creating a SAFE and non-judgmental space for my clients to freely express themselves is of utmost importance. I will be pursuing my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology beginning in August 2023 to further my education in counseling.

Life has challenges; some up and some down. We can feel anxious, sad, alone or sometimes just stuck with no clear direction and no one we can turn to. That's when we find ourselves needing a partner to walk alongside us as we navigate the things life throws our way. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with nearly a decade and a half of experience assisting individuals who took a big step towards wellness by doing just what you are doing today and looking for a counselor who you can trust.

I provide telehealth (video) counseling in English and Portuguese to adults suffering with: depression, anxiety, panic, social phobia, obsessions and compulsions, and struggles with relationships, perfectionism and career. Please understand that the success of the therapy is highly correlated to your ability to engage in the process. While having a rapport will provide a safe environment for you to express your challenges, in most cases, this is not enough. It requires your active participation in understanding how the mind works, where emotions come from and your behavioral choices.

Do you feel stuck? You have tried everything, but nothing seems to help. You have reached a point in your life or relationship where you are desperate for change. As people, we are not designed to carry life’s burdens alone, and deciding to seek help takes courage. It is my passion to help adults, adolescents, couples, and families discover their own personal journey towards healing so that they are better equipped to live a happier and healthier life. Through a warm and supportive environment, it is my priority that clients feel safe and comfortable throughout their entire therapeutic experience.

Jesus said, "Come to me, all who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest." Matt. 11:28 Take the first step and call me. Relationships are challenging! With God's help we partner with couples in the areas of premarital counseling, resolving conflicts, building on existing strengths, recovering from affairs, and forming secure connections between partners. We join with families in successful resolution of life-cycle transitions, parenting conflicts, blended family concerns, and extended family conflicts. We collaborate with individuals to build strong self-concepts, and improve daily and relational functioning.

Is your anxiety keeping you from having peace in your life? Are your relationships suffering because of your mood? For over 30 years I have helped people make effective change in their lives with a variety of problems. I am best known for my skills in treating people who have difficult situations, feel out of control of their lives, and need more stability in their emotions and relationships. With the use of meditation, mindfulness skills, and behavioral changes we can work together to create a more balanced life, healthier relationships, and more joy and confidence.

My specialties include chronic health conditions, grief, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the foundation of any healing journey. I bring empathy, warmth, and insight to my clients experiencing transitions and challenges.

***Not accepting new patients as of 5/01/2024 *** I work from a framework that integrates interpersonal process, existential, transdiagnostic, and mindfulness-based approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy emphasizing the use of the therapeutic alliance for growth and change. I have a reputation for approaching problems from a genuinely open-minded and non-judgmental position, and my clients often remark about the ease they feel telling me their most personal experiences.

I am passionate about helping teenagers and adults struggling with depression and anxiety feel unstuck and more in control, through a personalized and collaborative approach to talk therapy. I operate from a client-centered perspective, which means I believe you are the expert on your own life! I hope you could think of me like a co-pilot - along for the adventure while giving feedback from the passenger seat. I believe relationships play an important role from the beginning of our lives, and in our sessions, we’ll look at how your experiences have impacted your beliefs that may not be serving you in the way you would like.

If you have found yourself at a place in life where you feel stuck, there is hope. You are not alone. Therapy provides an opportunity to wrestle with painful areas in order to create an opportunity for healing to occur.

Most all of us could benefit from support at some point in our lives. Are you in the midst of making a life changing decision? Are you finding that you are repeating similar patterns of behavior that lead no where? Are your emotions difficult to manage? If you are struggling in this world personally, professionally, or socially, you do not have to walk your journey alone. I encourage you to reach out to a mental health specialist who can offer the professional support that will help you to make any changes necessary to live the life you desire to live.
