HELLO!
My name is Taylor and I am excited to be accepting new clients at Ahava Counseling! I enjoy working with kids, families, adolescents and young adults. I believe that the most important part of the therapeutic process is our relationship. I value spending time to create relationships with my clients where trust, respect and agency are at the center.
Utilizing a strengths-based approach, I am passionate about helping young people and their families navigate the many stressors of life. You can expect our work together to be individualized and creative, my goal is to meet you where you are in our treatment process. I specialize in working with clients experiencing suicidality, behavioral issues, substance use disorders, anxiety, depression and emotional dysregulation. My therapeutic approaches include dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, parent management training and parent child interactional therapy.
In my previous clinical experience, I have worked in inpatient psychiatric hospitals, outpatient mental health settings and emergency departments. I am passionate about creating safe spaces in any setting where clients are free from judgement and free to grow.
Congratulations on taking the first challenging step in seeking support for you or your family! I celebrate the time and effort that you have already committed to yourself and your healing and look forward to the opportunity of working with you!

STILL HAVE QUESTIONS?
Feel free to contact me if you have questions about my ability to help you with what is bringing you into counseling. Transformation happens when we feel understood and accepted without judgment; I strive to provide that space for you.
