Hi, I’m Taylor Garff, a licensed therapist and the founder of Inner Heart Therapy. I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, stress, and identity, especially folks in the LGBTQ+ community or anyone feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands.
I’m someone who believes therapy should feel like a soft place to land, not another thing you have to “get right.” My clients tell me they appreciate my warmth, humor, and ability to hold space for both the hard stuff and the hope. I’ll meet you with curiosity, compassion, and no pressure to be anything other than fully human.
In our work together, we might explore your anxious thoughts, practice ways to feel safer and more grounded in your body, or untangle patterns that keep you stuck. I use a mix of tools, like cognitive-behavioral therapy, nervous system regulation, and the Safe and Sound Protocol, to support you in finding more ease, clarity, and connection in your life.
If you’ve ever felt like you had to explain or defend your experiences, I want you to know you won’t have to do that here. This is a space where all of you is welcome.
I believe therapy should be a dynamic, collaborative process that yields real-world results. My practice is built on a foundation of academic excellence and specialized training, including a BA in Psychology from University of Southern California and a Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Utah.
My Therapeutic Toolkit: Evidence-Based & Proactive
I don't believe in a "one-size-fits-all" approach. I blend several powerful, evidence-based modalities to help you achieve your goals quickly and effectively:
- ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy): A specialized approach for trauma and PTSD that uses eye movements to "reprogram" distressing memories and sensations, often providing relief in just a few sessions.
- CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy): We will work together to identify and shift the thought patterns that keep you stuck in cycles of anxiety or depression.
- DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy): I provide practical skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships—giving you a "manual" for navigating life's hardest moments.
I bring 20 years of experience as a social worker across a range of mental health settings, but individual therapy is where I feel most at home. I often work with people navigating life transitions, stress, relationship challenges, and that “stuck” feeling. I also use DBT-informed approaches to help build coping skills and emotional balance.
I'm a wife, mom, stepmom, and grandma who loves spending time with family, being outdoors, and making meaningful memories. I believe that even in life's hardest seasons, peace is possible. I strive to bring that same warmth, hope, and authenticity into every session.
When life gives you lemons...
My education gave me the tools to be a skilled clinician. But it was my own trauma that gave me the insight and depth I bring to this work. I know what it feels like to live in a body that doesn’t feel safe—to question everything, including yourself. I spent over a decade learning how to heal, reclaim my voice, and become the kind of guide I once needed.
In the midst of that long journey, I had a quiet moment of clarity: what I was going through wasn’t just about survival—it was about becoming someone who could walk with others through the dark. That experience grounds my work in both knowledge and deep compassion.
Learning to love the desert
I’ve come to believe that being lost isn’t a problem—it’s part of the path. Like La Loba, the mythical bone-gatherer who wanders the desert collecting what’s been buried and brings it back to life, I help others gather what they’ve lost along the way. That process is sacred, slow, and often surprising—but it’s how we come home to ourselves.
There are parts of you that haven’t died; they’ve just been waiting. And sometimes, when it all falls apart, that’s when the wild, wise parts of you rise again.
Hello! I'm Dr. John Rossi, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a passion for helping people find clarity and hope on their mental health journey. At Clarity Mental Health and Wellness, I provide compassionate, personalized care — whether through medication management, therapy, or innovative options like ketamine treatment — to support you in feeling your best. I'm here to listen without judgment and work together toward lasting well-being. Welcome — I'm glad you're taking this step!
It can take work and lots of practice to find the key to balance in your life. I personally find my balance through ongoing self-care, self-reflection, and movement.
I have been in the counseling field for over a decade starting first in Forensic Counseling as an intern and spending 10 years in community mental health. I am now an owner of a private practice where I provide individual therapy ages 18+. My practice is in Wisconsin and offer telehealth to residents in Colorado, Florida, and Utah.
I’m Amanda, and I became a therapist because I believe everyone deserves a place where they can show up exactly as they are. I bring warmth, authenticity, and even a bit of humor into the room when it feels right. I want you to feel genuinely seen—not judged—and supported in whatever you’re working through.
I’ve been in the counseling field for over 15 years and hold a PhD in Counselor Education from the University of Tennessee. My experience ranges from private practice and telehealth to correctional mental health, hospitals, and leadership roles in community programs. A. Simms Resume copy
I work with adults experiencing mood challenges, anxiety, identity concerns, life transitions, and LGBTQIA+ experiences, as well as individuals who are justice-involved or adjusting to major life changes. My approach integrates CBT, ACT, and Reality Therapy, giving us room to explore both deeper patterns and practical skills.
Clients describe me as encouraging, steady, and real—someone who helps them feel grounded and capable while taking meaningful steps toward a more balanced and authentic life.
