Leah Taylor
Greetings, I provide therapy for high-functioning adults who are tired of surviving, overthinking, people-pleasing, and repeating painful relationship patterns. I've helped clients overcome struggles with issues such as Substance use, Anxiety, Depression, Relationship issues, LGBTQ, Ethical Non-Monogamy/lifestyle concerns, Bipolar disorder, Personality disorders, Trauma including sexual, emotional and physical abuse. My upbringing as the child of an immigrant Caribbean mother, and experience growing up in Brooklyn, NY allows me to bring a unique perspective to the counseling experience. My Counseling style is warm, direct, collaborative, and nonjudgmental with a utilization of CBT, DBT, Psycho-educational, and Psychodynamic therapy. Together, we'll work on managing symptoms and understanding the experiences and beliefs that may be contributing to how you feel today.
My biggest strength is really my experience, I have had a chance to work with a very diverse population of clients.
You are more than your trauma, Inner childhood wounds, and the labels placed on to you. I believe we are all unique individuals and therapy can be a space to understand yourself differently, strengthen your boundaries, develop healthier relationships, and create a life that feels more aligned with who you are now. Let's work together!
