About Taylor
Taylor August helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, and big life changes. She is a licensed mental health counselor who aims to make sessions steady and practical. Taylor speaks plainly and focuses on what someone can do between appointments.
In the room she listens first and follows the person's lead. She uses straightforward tools to reduce worry and to address patterns that cause pain. Sessions include noticing thoughts and feelings, trying new coping skills, and planning small steps forward.
Background and approach
Taylor blends client-centered work with approaches that target unhelpful thinking and emotional regulation. That means she meets people where they are and adds practical strategies when needed. She also draws on motivational techniques to build momentum for change.
She has six years of clinical experience and practices in Massachusetts as an MA LMHC, which means she holds a master's degree and a license as a mental health counselor. That background shapes a pragmatic, person-focused style. Taylor often supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, work stress, and issues common to young adults.
She also has experience with obsessive-compulsive patterns, mood concerns, and social anxiety. Her aim is to help people feel more able to manage daily life. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's needs.
Taylor helps clients set clear goals, try manageable changes, and track progress over time.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding the person's experience and offering empathetic listening so they can lead the work. This approach helps people who need a supportive space to sort out feelings and make decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into clear steps you can practice. It is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, OCD patterns, and social anxiety because it gives concrete tools to try between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving responses to stress. It can help with intense mood swings, relationship difficulties, and self-soothing techniques.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and day-to-day life. That collaboration can include trying different techniques and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy here is offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face without travel, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports quicker check-ins, and messaging helps track thoughts and practice skills over time. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy schedules.
