Taylor McCarthy, LPC
Hi, I’m Taylor, and I’m a Winnie-the-Pooh-obsessed, Star Wars-loving book nerd with the kind of humor that will make your eyes roll!
I enjoy spending time with my dogs and family, as well as making corny fan edits of my favorite things. Still here? Why not make yourself a cup of tea and learn more about me!
Welcome! My name is Taylor McCarthy and I am a licensed professional counselor. I am passionate about helping those on their road to recovery and healing. I incorporate humor and honesty in my sessions as well as evidence based modalities.
Therapy Approaches
One modality might not be your cup of tea (get it) and that's okay! Tell me what you've found helpful so far!
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy
DBT allows us to learn how to regulate our emotions, tolerate distressful situations, and increase mindfulness to allow processing to begin.
Narrative Therapy
Narrative Therapy helps us to reauthor our stories. As we externalize what we are going through, we can have more self-compassion and understanding of why we think/behave the ways we do.
Internal Family Systems
IFS lets us look at all the different parts that make up who we are. It helps us understand internal conflict and heal ourselves.
Professional Experience/Training
I graduated with my bachelor's in Science in Psychology from Colorado Technical University in 2020, and with my master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Jacksonville University in 2022.
I have worked in multiple levels of care including; inpatient, partial hospitalization programming (PHP), intensive outpatient programming (IOP), and Outpatient services.
I have worked and have training in many eating disorders including: Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder, and Other Specified Eating Disorder.
I am a firm believer in treatment coordination with your other health care providers to make sure you are getting the highest level of professional care. I frequently coordinate with dietitians, primary care providers, and previously attended programs/facilities. I find this creates a strong supportive treatment team. A perfect blend.
Let's Talk
The first step in therapy is talking. Let's find a time where we can meet and talk about what's on your mind.
