Accepting new (in-person and telehealth) clients. Welcome, I'm Taylor! I have had a passion for healing from a very young age. It all began with the healing journey of myself, through which I explored countless modalities. I found that the most profound growth came from combining both eastern and western practices. This is why I focus my work in merging east and west. My approach is integrative as well as eclectic. While my practice is grounded in traditional depth psychotherapy, I incorporate spiritual healing elements such as intuitive therapy, energy clearing, yoga nidra & guided meditations.

Accepting new clients - teens, romantic partnerships, adults, and families. It can feel really good to finally get help, and yet, it can still be hard to accept that you deserve it.

As a therapist, I am committed to empowering clients to live their best life, have meaningful and loving relationships, and most importantly, in the words of Virginia Satir, "help them have stars in their eyes and truly feel their own value." At times, as we move through the different stages of our life, we find ourselves stuck due to our unproductive internal dialogue of shame and guilt, the need to be perfect, and the daily attempts to be who the rest of the world wants us to be. This leads us to feeling broken and unable to love ourselves or truly connect with others.

My clients are curious, thoughtful and willing to question conventional wisdom in search of their own values and passions. Expectations about how we’re supposed to show up as women, men, parents, couples, kids etc. get in the way of our unique perspectives and strengths. I love helping discover those strengths, joys and passions that hide behind expectation. Together we can notice specific places of power that feed the preferred parts and engage in challenging conversations in a safe, shame free place.
