I'm Ashely Taylor, and my journey into the realm of therapy began with a simple yet profound realization: the incredible strength and resilience that resides within each of us, waiting to be discovered and nurtured. Over the years, I've had the privilege of specializing in anxiety, depression and trauma, witnessing the transformative power of therapy in the lives of my clients. My approach is rooted in the principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and enriched by a deep commitment to the Person-Centered perspective, ensuring that your unique story and experiences are at the heart of our work together. I entered this field driven by a passion to understand the intricate workings of the human mind and the belief that through understanding, compassion, and evidence-based strategies, we can navigate the complexities of life more effectively. My mission is to provide a safe, accepting space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment, learn new skills to manage life's challenges, and ultimately, cultivate a more fulfilling and meaningful life. In our sessions, we'll embark on a collaborative journey, drawing upon the principles of CBT to identify and reframe cognitive distortions that may be impacting your emotions and behaviors. This process is not about changing who you are but rather empowering you to see yourself and your situation through a more adaptive and compassionate lens. By integrating a Person-Centered approach, I ensure that our therapeutic path is guided by your individual needs, values, and goals, creating a tailored experience that respects your autonomy and fosters genuine growth. Whether you're seeking to overcome specific challenges, find greater self-understanding, or embark on a journey of personal development, I am here to support you every step of the way. Together, we can work towards unlocking your potential, enhancing your well-being, and achieving the changes you seek in your life. Thank you for considering me as your partner in this journey. I look forward to the opportunity to work together and witness the positive changes that await.
