Hi there, I'm Taffie. Thanks so much for checking out my profile! Life can be difficult to navigate and sometimes it's hard to ask for help. The decision to identify a therapist is a great start. Therapy may seem scary. However, it need not frighten you. Think of it as a conversation that opens up new thoughts and emotions. Most people find that this type of sharing is best done in partnership with someone who provides unconditional acceptance in an environment that’s calm and comforting. Are you looking for a safe welcoming place where you can just be? Be heard . . . be valued . . . be accepted exactly where you are? I can provide that. I will listen as you express how you feel and what you’re dealing with and ask questions and make observations to help both of us understand you and your needs. We will walk through challenges and fear together to help you create a fulfilling life. I invite you into my space to start this journey. The time we spend together will be all about you.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session together, here's what you can expect I will ask many questions to become more familiar with who you are and what has happened in your life and begin the process of assessing what you need. I’ll share the basics of my approach and invite you to ask any questions that you’d like to have answered. I don't start with plunging into therapy because I believe that we need to develop a therapeutic relationship - one based on comfort, support, trust, and openness -before we begin to address the reasons that bring you to therapy.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
One of my biggest strengths is to invite you into a therapeutic relationship by using empathy and hearing you completely. I will check in with you to ensure what I heard - and if that is truly what you are saying. You can explore anything you'd like no matter how scary it may be - or personal it may be. I have years of experience - which is why I am never judgmental or critical. I am able to use a trauma therapy that is extemely helpful for post traumatic stress disorder - and can provide some relief. I also identify as bisexual and have worked with the LGBT community and find that can be reassuring for anyone considering their sexuality or gender.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I'm best positioned to serve individuals who are 18 years or older at any stage of adult life from young adulthood to seniors.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
My approach is total acceptance and no judgment. I accept you wherever you are and my role is to empower you to move forward in a way you want.
EMDR
This therapy is very helpful for processing trauma. I am a board-certified EMDR therapist and welcome you consider this for trauma.
Gender-affirming therapy
I have worked with individuals in the process of transitioning and those who have already transitioned. However you identify your gender (or sexual orientation) I know that you can still be depressed, anxious or other mental health challenges.
Eclectic
As a therapist, I incorporate different approaches that address a variety of life’s issues. My specialties include: • Relationships with family and other significant folks • Trauma and PTSD • Anxiety, depression, and the fluctuations of our mood and emotions • Gender and sexual identity One of my favorite quotes is: "I am a lighthouse, rather than a lifeboat. I do not rescue but instead help others to find their way to shore." If you are searching for the way to the shore, I can help.
