Tayler Gonzalez

Do you feel like you are constantly in "survival mode," weighed down by anxiety or the lingering effects of past experiences? Trauma often leaves us feeling disconnected from those around us—and even from ourselves. It can be exhausting trying to navigate a world that doesn't feel safe. You don't have to carry that weight alone.

As a Licensed Master of Social Work, I operate from a trauma-informed perspective. This means that before we dive into the "work," my first priority is establishing a sense of safety and trust. I don't ask "what is wrong with you," but rather seek to understand what you have experienced and how it has shaped your world.

My approach is eclectic and tailored to your unique needs. I draw from Adlerian therapy to help you rebuild a sense of purpose and belonging, while using Distress Tolerance techniques to help you manage triggers and overwhelm in the moment. We can also utilize CBT to gently examine the thought patterns holding you back, always moving at a pace that feels safe for you.

Therapy is a collaborative journey. Whether you are navigating depression, processing trauma, or simply seeking balance, I am here to walk that path with you. Let’s work together to build a life that feels authentic, safe, and manageable. Call or email me today for a consultation
