Taylor DeFrees

Student Therapist (She/Her)

I believe in honoring our journeys and the unique experiences that shape us. My goal is to create a compassionate and supportive space where you can explore your story, strengthen your inner self, and move forward with self-empowerment and hope. Life is full of challenges and opportunities, and while the path can be difficult at times, I believe it is never impossible.

Taylor DeFrees Disclosure Statement

I believe that true mental health and wellness come from tending to the whole person. Each of us carries a unique story that shapes who we are and where we hope to go. Life is full of both challenges and opportunities for growth, and while the path can be difficult to navigate at times, I believe it is never impossible.

We all have the capacity to deepen our understanding of ourselves and our relationships when we begin to explore and reflect on the narratives we carry. I strive to create a space where vulnerability is honored and where the roots of emotion can be explored with curiosity and compassion.

My approach is grounded in a person-centered approach, helping individuals recognize and build on their inherent strengths, those often-overlooked parts of ourselves that allow us to grow, heal, and connect. I believe that every person has within them the ability to move forward, even in the face of adversity. As your therapist, I aim to walk alongside you on this journey, supporting your self-discovery and helping you build a personalized toolbox to navigate life’s ups and downs with confidence, resilience, self-empowerment, and hope.
