Sometimes you need the space and the right person to help you get unstuck and move forward in success. I have worked for over 18 years with children, adolescents, adults and families in overcoming their obstacles in mental health and addiction to walk in healing.

Taylor utilizes a person-centered counseling approach incorporated with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Existential based concepts all through a trauma focused lens.
Taylor has worked in the field of mental health for nearly ten years involving direct contact with children, adolescent, and adult survivors of trauma. She has directly worked with survivors from various ranges of abuse and neglect to help instill physical safety, healthy boundaries, and hope. She firmly believes there is no “one way” to partake in therapy and sometimes it takes multiple attempts to bring light and awareness to those areas in our lives keeping us stuck and in the dark. She looks forward to supporting you during this time of healing and self-exploration.

Welcome. I am so excited to offer my innovative version of EMDR which is 86% faster than Standard EMDR protocol while reducing symptoms for my clients by 82-84% with p< .001. Translated, this means that my version, Target 2 Zero, works extremely well. Adverse experiences or the tough stuff of life cause a variety of uncomfortable symptoms including anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder ect. By thinking back through the memory of the adverse or bothersome event and doing a few other things at the same time the memory changes. It decreases in intensity and goes from 1st to third person.

I'm glad you are here. Life is hard enough with out beating yourself up and telling yourself you suck as a person, friend, partner, parent, child, employee, and on, and on. It's important to find space to give your mind a break from the negative chatter you use to push yourself forward but only holds you back. You have worth. All those to do lists can wait. Start finding moments of peace and connection to others. Take some time to be in the moment and enjoy the right now.

I am a native to SWVA with a background in yoga and creative arts. I love learning new things and working with clients to explore the most effective and engaging tools for their journey. I am especially interested in the ways that language shapes cognition. I think that people are inherently motivated toward meaning, and that when we build curiosity for something (like our mind or our suffering), it's harder to hate or be fearful of it. I'm interested in helping you to access your inner resources and live your life the way you want to live it. Healing is bold and unpredictable. It's a privilege to accompany you through the process.
