More about Taylor

  • 6 years' experience
  • Female
  • PhD

I aim to provide culturally sensitive, trauma informed therapy, honoring your strengths, experiences, and intersecting identities. My goal is to help you to live a life that feels rich and meaningful to you. I approach people with the belief that they are more than their pain, and want more than just an end to the suffering in their life. People want to lead meaningful lives. I view the relationship as the primary vehicle for helping clients feel accepted, cared for, and ultimately, open to change. My approach is genuine, compassionate, collaborative, and non-judgmental.
