About Tausha

Tausha Taylor is a licensed professional counselor with more than 12 years of experience. She helps people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, addiction, and grief. She also supports those facing relationship and intimacy issues, parenting challenges, career transitions, and concerns related to ADHD and autism.

Tausha uses a warm, interactive style that focuses on respect and compassion. She avoids stigmatizing labels and aims to create a space where clients can speak honestly. Conversations and plans are tailored to each person's needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all script.

Her work blends several approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools are offered to build emotional regulation skills and steady relationships. She also draws from client-centered and mindfulness approaches to keep sessions grounded in the client's experience.

Tausha has supported people coping with trauma and abuse, chronic illness, caregiving stress, and complicated family dynamics. She helps with practical problems like communication breakdowns, codependency patterns, and managing impulsive or addictive behaviors. Her experience includes work with people facing life changes such as divorce, blended family adjustments, and aging concerns.

She holds LPC and LCPC credentials in Missouri and combines therapy with coaching when appropriate. If someone is ready to work toward clearer goals and steadier coping, she partners with them to plan steps forward.

How approaches like CBT, DBT, and client-centered work online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead and helps clarify goals and values to guide sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical steps to test and change unhelpful thinking. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy or DBT emphasizes building skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. These skills can help with intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and impulsive behaviors. Tausha combines these methods with mindfulness practices to slow down and notice patterns in thoughts and urges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and practical needs and then suggest methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can be adjusted over time based on how well each approach fits the person's situation.
