Masters Candidate Non Profit Therapist

Taylor Chance

“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.” - Brené Brown

MEET TAYLOR:

     Taylor's journey into the field is marked by a deep-seated passion for human connection and understanding. Her approach to therapy is shaped by her genuine, nonjudgmental, and empathetic demeanor, which is enhanced by her collaborative nature and commitment to fostering supportive relationships with her clients.

A formative influence on Taylor's professional path was Lori Gottlieb's Maybe You Should Talk to Someone: A Therapist, Her Therapist, and Our Lives Revealed. This book, with its unique dual perspective on therapy, resonated deeply with Taylor, offering profound insights into the universal human experience. The candid storytelling not only enriched her understanding of empathy and the struggles faced by individuals but also prompted her to reflect on her own life and relationships.

  • During her undergraduate years, Taylor made significant contributions to her university's National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) branch. Her active involvement in creating a supportive community that openly embraced mental health challenges and provided valuable resources was a testament to her dedication to mental health advocacy.

    From an early age, Taylor has been fascinated by the beauty of human connection. She finds joy in listening to diverse stories and offering a guiding hand, driven by an innate passion for understanding and uplifting others. This passion has been a constant thread throughout her life, influencing her decision to pursue a career in psychotherapy.

    Outside of her professional pursuits, Taylor finds solace and renewal in nature. Immersing herself in the natural world allows her to practice mindfulness, embrace a slower pace of life, and rejuvenate amidst life's chaos. Physical activity also plays a crucial role in her daily routine, providing her with stress relief and a boost of positive energy that enhances her resilience and clarity. Taylor’s love for reading further enriches her life, offering an escape into different worlds and new perspectives. The beauty of words provides solace and inspiration, complementing her holistic approach to personal well-being.
