Dave Taylor
LMFT
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist who works with adult individuals and couples. With an emphasis on curiosity and acceptance, my goal is to build rapport with clients and create a warm, safe environment where healing can occur. I'm a firm believer that a solid therapeutic relationship is essential to create change. For individuals, I draw on a mindfulness approach that utilizes the Internal Family Systems model to conceptualize mental health struggles, such as depression or anxiety, as protective parts of the personality – parts of the personality to be explored and not judged. For couples, I find guidance and inspiration from the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy, which both take a non-blaming approach to partners who find themselves stuck in negative cycles. I have experience working with a range of issues, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, relationship problems, infidelity, parenting struggles, childhood abuse and neglect, addiction, and life transitions.
