Taylor Smith is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Mississippi (LPC #2347) and a Board Certified Counselor through the National Board for Certified Counselors. Taylor also holds board certification as a telemental health professional and completed a master’s degree in Counselor Education in 2016. With eight years of post-graduate experience, Taylor has worked in community mental health since finishing graduate school.
Taylor has supported people living with depression, anxiety, traumatic stress, social phobia, and bipolar disorder, and completed a college counseling internship working mainly with young adults striving to maintain academic success while coping with life issues. Taylor is trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy, and has applied these approaches to help clients process and cope with traumatic experiences.
Taylor’s approach centers on promoting a positive self-image, self-acceptance, and greater self-compassion. Clinical work draws on Solution-Focused therapy, Choice Theory, a client-centered orientation, and cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients overcome obstacles and build lives they enjoy. Taylor operates from the belief that each person holds the key to their own success, recognizes that asking for help requires humility and strength, and welcomes the opportunity to continue this work with new clients.
People often wonder whether online therapy can make a meaningful difference. For many common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is convenience. Clients can connect in the way that suits them best - via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch therapists at any time if they want a different therapeutic fit. Online formats can offer the same therapeutic approaches and professional support as office-based care while adding flexibility to how and when people engage in treatment.
