CLINICAL APPROACH

I take a conversational and non-judgmental approach to therapy, with the goal of making each session feel manageable and approachable. I tend to base my work in relational-cultural, feminist, and humanistic theoretical approaches, but I am more than happy to dabble in whatever tools end up working best for each client! My main approach is to meet you where you are, and to collaborate to create a trusting relationship that allows us to work together as a team.

Client Testimonials

"Taylor is fantastic with teens—kind, engaging, and easy to talk to. She makes therapy comfortable, provides practical advice, and advocates on behalf of her clients. Our teen feels heard, supported, and more confident. We are grateful for Taylor's guidance!"

"Taylor has been great!"

"These have been the happiest and saddest hours I have spent. And usually on the same day! Taylor has helped me to realize new things about myself that I never thought I would. Taylor handles me and our sessions like a warm sweater being wrapped around me. What a wonderful feeling. And she makes it look effortless. Which we all know is definitely not true. When our sessions do come to an end, I can honestly say I will never forget Taylor."

"Working with Taylor has been life-saving!"
