LGBT therapists in Spokane, WA

I believe trust is cultivated through transparency. I integrate evidence-based care with treatment. Treatment can open unique pathways towards emotional breakthrough and has shown a remarkable ability to reduce symptoms rapidly.

I work with individuals, couples and families with teenagers who are struggling with managing stress, depression and anxiety, sexual issues (such as porn use, kink and gender issues), parenting and couples relationship conflicts, as well as helping individuals move on from past experiences of trauma or loss. I have a doctorate in Social Psychology and a Masters degree in Counseling Psychology. I have a solid and extensive background and training in treating addictions and substance abuse.

People heal when they are provided with a safe, validating, and empowering environment. I strive to provide this type of environment to my clients in my therapeutic practice. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Washington and a certified yoga instructor (200-YTT). I specialize in Mindfulness-Based Therapy (MBT) and trauma-informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to increase mind-body connection and identify and change thought patterns that are no longer serving you.

I've had the privilege of exploring three distinct careers—first as an opera singer, then in marketing—but it was discovering Social Work that truly aligned with my passion and purpose. After earning my Master’s in Social Work from NYU, I worked in psychiatric emergency rooms before launching my therapy practice in 2020. I specialize in blending Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients uncover internal blocks and move toward lives filled with meaning, vitality, and self-compassion.

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 am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I hold a Bachelors of Science in Psychology from James Madison University. I also hold a Master's degree and Educational Specialist degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from James Madison University. I have provided outpatient counseling services in multiple community settings including higher education, military counseling centers and veteran's counseling centers.
