Virtual & in-person • 3.2 mi away • Spokane, WA


As your therapist, my belief is simple: everyone deserves someone in their corner as they navigate life’s challenges. Talking through what we carry is often the first step toward understanding the barriers that shape our day‐to‐day experiences. For the past 20 years, I’ve had the honor of supporting adults and youth facing trauma, transitions, and mental health concerns. I’m currently open to working with anyone who is seeking a new perspective, a different approach, or a space to explore what’s happening in their life with honesty and support.

Taylor McAvoy

Taylor McAvoy

Therapist

Virtual • Washington


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.

Therapist

Having grown up in Taiwan, studied in the U.S., and spent a few years in China and Singapore, I truly understand what it feels like to adapt to new environments while trying to stay true to yourself. You work hard, yet it never feels like enough. You’re overwhelmed but can’t slow down. Your mind races, making it hard to feel grounded. You want stronger connections, more balance, and to feel present in your life. Most of all, you want to feel at ease with yourself and trust that who you are is enough. It’s not just about adjusting; it’s about finding a way to thrive while honoring where you come from. Since 2008, I’ve worked with English- and Mandarin-speaking adults facing major life shifts, whether it’s stress, relationship struggles, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, loneliness, or career uncertainty. You do not have to face these challenges alone; together, we'll create a path forward that feels authentic and sustainable.

Guaranteed intake appointment available within 24-48 hours. A provider you can reach directly, by text. Personal responses to all messages within 24 - 48 hours, always. Evening and weekend hours available.

Thanks for reading this. I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with over 14 years of experience. I work with clients ages 6 to 86 struggling with depression, anxiety, ADHD, borderline personality disorder, substance abuse and other issues. I help clients to find stability and reduce suffering.

Depression and anxiety can be logical responses to difficult life events. Many adults who experienced losses and traumas in childhood have never processed these events and continue to suffer their impacts.

(Please note that I am no longer taking on new therapy clients, I am only accepting new clients for medication management at this time.)
