About Taylor
Taylor August is an MA, Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Massachusetts with six years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem struggles, and people coping with life changes. Taylor also focuses on issues such as attachment and abandonment, workplace stress, social anxiety, and challenges common in young adulthood.
Taylor approaches therapy in a collaborative, practical way. She helps people notice how thoughts and feelings shape reactions. She teaches concrete skills for managing worry, regulating emotions, and handling relationship strain.
Sessions are described as nonjudgmental and individualized. Taylor uses methods that break problems into manageable steps. Conversations tend to focus on what to try between sessions and how to apply skills in everyday situations.
She draws on several evidence-informed approaches to guide work in therapy. These methods include looking at unhelpful thinking patterns, practicing emotion regulation tools, and using motivational strategies to support change. That combination can help with mood concerns, obsessive thinking, and patterns like codependency or workplace stress.
Taylor often supports people navigating the specific pressures of early adulthood. She helps with transitions such as leaving home, starting a first job, or feeling behind compared with peers. Sessions aim to reduce overwhelm and build steadier coping over time.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. It helps people feel understood and clarifies personal goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches specific techniques to reduce worry and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that are useful for intense moods and relationship conflict.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Taylor treats this as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust methods based on what helps most in practice.
