My name is Taylor, and my pronouns are he/him. I earned my Bachelors of Science in Psychology, my Masters in Clinical Counseling Psychology, and my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. I work from an existential and attachment base and work relationally to clarify, reflect upon, and understand life. To really get to know yourself, what motivates you, what influences your choices and decisions. Get to the heart of what is meaningful to you and how to keep on your journey with confidence and intention. There is healing through relating and we will explore your emotions, your thoughts, motivations, and expectations of yourself and others. At time we will put our thoughts aside to focus on emotions, and focus on the specifics and patterns, to make something come alive here and now.
I am currently accepting new clients for telehealth appointments weekday evenings between 5pm and 8pm and 8am to 7pm weekends. I also can offer in home therapy at your residence on an as needed basis pending availability. I do not work with/take insurance, however I can provide superbills for you to submit for reimbursement as I am considered an Out Of Network Provider. Please email or call to request an appointment that works everyone.

I believe animals can be so important to our mental health and what they can do for us. Our animals are like our kids and hold such special places in our hearts. Here is one of my kids enjoying herself at the beach.
ABOUT
Therapy as a relationship, tool, and experience
My name is Taylor, and my pronouns are he/him. I earned my Bachelors of Science in Psychology, my Masters in Clinical Counseling Psychology, and my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. I describe my therapeutic style as Psychodynamic in concert with Existential work. I work with individuals, trauma, and relationships to clarify, reflect on, and understand life. My office is not a place to worry about making sense or having all the answers. You can be yourself in whatever way that looks like at the time. I work to be supportive, understanding, and empathically present. At times I will challenge things to bring about greater insight and better understand your experience, interactions with others, and how this is presenting today. At times it may be difficult to discuss things and create a safe and secure sense to address any hurt, trauma, memories, and things you may be avoiding in your day-to-day life. We will address it, work with it, and reduce how much it hurts you.
Change can begin with identifying feelings, the impulse, building insight, connecting to experience, or practicing new skills and behaviors. We will explore what works best for you.
During our work together we will use the therapeutic relationship as a tool. We will discuss the therapy and how this can work outside of the office in your other relationships and interactions with people. What happens in the room can offer immediate information about how your relationships work and we can this as a space to new ways of relating and responding.
The unique needs and goals you have will influence the amount of time we work together, what our focus will be, and how far we reach. We will check in regularly about the progress we are making and change as needed during our time together.
