About me

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapy Associate. I am located in Wenatchee, WA and have had over 3 years experience as therapist. I earned my Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy from Whitworth University in 2017. I have experience working with relationship issues, self-esteem, life changes and stressors, anxiety, depression, trauma, sexual issues, and more.

We often experience seasons where we struggle to find hope - hope in relationship, hope through depression or anxiety, hope beyond current circumstances. I believe that therapy is a place people come searching for that hope. We long for a change. We long for someone to hear our hearts, our stories, our circumstances and say “yes, there is hope.” That’s what I am here to tell you: there is hope. You are more than your circumstances. You do not have to be stuck.

I believe that transformation is a journey that takes vulnerability with oneself. My goal in every session is to provide a safe and supportive space for you to be your authentic self and grow more to who you want to be. I want to walk alongside you, look at all that you are facing and overwhelmed with, and find that spark of hope and foster it. When hope is renewed, we can then take the steps to change - change our situations, our mindsets, our hearts, etc. Starting at hope, we then move to practical steps to help you move past your circumstance and achieve your desired self.

Taylen is a great listener and although I haven’t been working with her for very long, I feel very comfortable talking to her and she is super supportive! She really cares about all my concerns and if there’s any clarification needed, she makes sure to ask so we are on the same page! Definitely looking forward to opening up more and really confident she can provide me with the help I need!

Taylen has been immensely helpful in guiding me as I go through a period of major transition(s) in my life. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help or guidance in their own.

I would highly recommend Taylen as a counselor. She she is insightful and able to zero in on issues in a non judgmental and supportive manner. She provide a number of excellent re-frames and perspectives that immediately were applicable to my situation .
