New to Grow
Thank you for making it this far, I am Sabrina Taylor, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am licensed to provide counseling by the Arizona Board of Behavioral Health Examiners. I earned my Masters degree at Argosy University, Los Angeles in Counseling Psychology and Marriage and Family Therapy. As your therapist it is important for you to know that I am a practicing Christian and deeply rooted in my faith. I believe that one’s faith can be a source of strength while navigating difficult times. I can offer a Christian perspective in conjunction with evidence based therapeutic interventions if this is something you will find helpful. My goal is not to force my beliefs or practices onto you as I practice from a non-judgmental stance. I am here to walk with you in what may seem your darkest moment and to offer you a safe place to address issues that are keeping you from living your best life. My life's journey of helping others is a valuable and meaningful pursuit that hopefully enriches the lives of others. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your journey and playing a supportive role in this. “When we start our day with a spirit of joy, openness, peace and love, we put the universe on alert, we want more of the same.” - Iyanla Vanzant
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Welcome. I’m glad you’re here today. Before we get started, I want you to know that this is a space where you can talk openly about whatever feels important. My role is to support you, help you explore what you’re experiencing, and work with you toward the goals you’d like to set. We’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you. If anything, I say doesn’t feel helpful or you ever want to shift direction, you can tell me at any time. How we use this time is something we’ll shape together.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I’m someone who’s here to support you without judgment. My role isn’t to tell you what to do, but to help you explore what you’re feeling, understand what’s been weighing on you, and work with you to find a path that feels right. I’m here to listen, to ask questions that help you reflect, and to create a space where you can speak honestly and feel understood. Whatever you bring into this room, we’ll navigate it together. “There are years that ask questions and years that answer.” - Zora Neale Hurston
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I have a passion for working with couples and families. I have extensive evidenced based training and provide couples counseling using Gottman Method Couples Therapy and many other therapeutic interventions for couples and families. My goal is to help couples to rebuild a stronger foundation in their relationship; one in which they can experience true friendship, intimacy, and passion. In addition to working with couples and families, I work empathetically with individuals seeking a new path to personal development and emotional healing. I believe that each person has unique strengths and ideals that need to be supported and nurtured to create lifelong health and happiness. So, if you are currently feeling alone and isolated in your struggle and vulnerable while dealing with your personal traumatic experiences; childhood sexual trauma/molestation, intimate partner violence, verbal, and emotional abuse and workplace challenges; please reach out to me. If you are questioning your parenting and feel that you are failing in important life roles, please consider reaching out. You do not have to be alone. “Have enough courage to trust love one more time and always one more time.” - Maya Angelou
