Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Taylor blends Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to address a broad range of concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build more secure, supportive connections with others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a practical approach that identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially useful for high-intensity emotions and self-directed behavioral change.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work, and Taylor collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so the plan remains aligned with what is most helpful for the client.

Online therapy with Taylor is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from home or elsewhere, support consistent engagement in treatment, and allow therapy to fit into busy lives while preserving the therapeutic relationship with a trained therapist.
