Hi there! My name is Taylor and I believe that therapy should be accessible for people of all backgrounds. I work to provide my clients with a healing space through person-centered, trauma-informed, narrative and feminist approaches.

I studied clinical mental health counseling at Northwest University in Kirkland, Washington and while in school my practicum was through LifeWire in Bellevue serving as a shelter and advocacy agency for survivors of Intimate Partner Violence.

I gained 3 years of experience as an associate counselor working with a group private practice serving children and teens. I have a developed understanding of unique challenges faced across lifespan development and the intersections of those developmental themes with marginalized identities.

I now have two years post-associate experience for a total of 5 years experience. I specialize in treating young adults and teens although I work well with all ages. My areas of focus are anxiety, trauma, LGBTQIA+ identity issues, women's issues, major life transitions, and relationships.

I believe that creative spaces are healing spaces and often foster creativity during sessions as needed for the client.

I enjoy learning about ways we can change and understand our human existence. We are thinking, feeling and doing beings. Cognitive behavioral therapy provides a framework to identify ways to do it differently and better. Trauma treatment modalities like EMDR may support processing neurological and physiological reactions and being able to feel secure and safe while staying connected to others more fully. Our story is just that; we write it and edit it. We get to choose the chapters and path of our lives, through the unknowns, mysteries and celebrations.
