Care Philosophy: Talkspace partners with care providers who find satisfaction in providing therapy in a way that prioritizes the client's convenience and preferences. Because all therapy takes place virtually, through messaging, live virtual sessions, or both, providers can communicate more frequently and casually in comparison to traditional face-to-face therapy. Talkspace treatment methods are supported by scientific research and are committed to non-judgmental care that is inclusive and respectful of cultural and other identities. Talkspace patients are matched with the best provider for them based on their needs and availability during the registration process. Once matched with a provider, patients may change at any time, and may contact support to request a specific provider. *The above is attributed to Talkspace and not the provider.*

Biography: Hello. My name is Taylor, and I am an LPC in Texas. I was able to obtain a undergraduate degree in psychology from TCU, and then my masters in psychology at Western Kentucky University. I have experience of 3+ years working at an inpatient hospital setting where I floated around between units working with Children, Adolescents, Adults, Geriatrics, and Persons in the Military. Ever since then I have been working exclusively with adolescents and children teaching them CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) skills for 5 years. Around the start of the pandemic (June 2020) I started seeing Adults through tele-med, and have been doing one-on-one sessions since then with adults struggling with anxiety towards COVID-19, relationship stress from quarantine, and restructuring their anxious thoughts to feel more in control. I do almost exclusively CBT skills, and my strengths are in educating what mental illness is, how is it expressed, and the difference ways CBT can help. I also am good a teaching relaxation skills, and identifying the thoughts that lead to more extreme, unhealthy emotions. My goal is to help you understand yourself, and your mind, and with that understanding help you be able to help yourself. Non-therapy: I have a cat that turns 7 and a dog that turns 2 this summer. I enjoy going on walks, bird watching, reading, and playing FIFA when I'm not working. Unfortunately, I root for the Cowboys. I look forwarded to working with you, Taylor
