Lisa Taylor (She/Her/Hers)

I provide specialized grief counseling for adults navigating bereavement, complicated grief, and loss related to illness or life transitions. With advanced training and experience in medical and end-of-life settings, I help clients process grief at their own pace while integrating meaning, connection, and emotional stability.

I work with adults coping with chronic illness, medical uncertainty, and the psychological impact of health conditions. With a background in hospital-based psychology, I understand the intersection of physical and emotional health. Therapy focuses on reducing health-related anxiety, improving coping, and rebuilding quality of life alongside medical care.

I specialize in anxiety disorders, health anxiety, and high-functioning worry that feels constant and exhausting. Using evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT, and mindfulness-based strategies, I help adults understand anxious thought patterns, reduce avoidance, and build steady confidence. My work focuses on practical tools, emotional insight, and long-term resilience.

I am trained in evidence-based CBT and use it to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns, reduce avoidance, and build practical coping skills. My approach goes beyond symptom management, focusing on understanding cognitive distortions at their root while helping clients develop emotional steadiness and long-term resilience.

ACT informs much of my work with anxiety, grief, and chronic illness. I help clients develop psychological flexibility, learn to relate differently to painful thoughts and emotions, and reconnect with their values. Rather than eliminating distress, ACT supports living meaningfully alongside it with clarity and intention.

My work is grounded in a person-centered foundation, emphasizing empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard. I create a steady, non-judgmental space where clients feel deeply understood and safe to explore complex emotions. This relational foundation is essential, particularly in grief and health-related work, where trust and emotional safety are central to meaningful change.
