About Taylor

Hi there, I'm Taylor. I have been working within the field of mental health for over 12 years. My expertise and areas of interest are working with adolescents and adults navigating life transitions, self-esteem and body image concerns, anxiety, depression, attachment issues, relationships, and disordered eating. The care I strive to provide my clients comes from a place of deep compassion for the human experience and I work to encourage and empower my clients to see the strengths that are within them. I believe in dedication, creative expression, and learning to trust your inner self. Working with me will bring realness, empathy, openness, and some laughs (or quite a few laughs). I live in the Des Moines area with my son. I completed my BSW and MSW at the University of Northern Iowa and am dually licensed as a Clinical Social Worker and Addictions Counselor. In my spare time I enjoy listening to metalcore music and attending shows, getting outside with my son, being near or in water, and lifting (very) heavy things.
