My Approach to Helping
Hi, my name is Melissa Taylor. I am licensed in In TN as a Professional Counselor / Mental Health Service Provider. I am also licensed in VT as a Clinical Mental Health Counselor as well as a Drug & Alcohol Counselor.
In therapy, it's essential to recognize that you are the expert on yourself. Your unique insights and self-awareness guide the therapeutic process. The approach we take is tailored to your preferences, ensuring a collaborative and empowering journey towards growth and well-being.
The most common theoretical approached used:
1. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT): This approach focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to psychological distress.
2. Solution-focused brief therapy: This approach focuses on identifying and building upon an individual's strengths and resources, rather than dwelling on problems or past experiences.
3. Humanistic therapy: This approach emphasizes personal growth, self-awareness, and the importance of the present moment in therapy.
