About Taylor

Taylor Kent (Gibbs) is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Indiana with nine years of therapy experience. She has a bachelor's degree and a Master of Social Work from Indiana University and has worked most often with adults and adolescents. Taylor focuses on helping people cope with anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and relationship and family stress.

Her approach is warm and down-to-earth. She listens without judgment and points out strengths people may not notice. Sessions tend to be conversational and collaborative, with a relaxed tone and occasional humor when it fits. The goal is practical changes that match each person's life and values.

Taylor uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method. She commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment principles, attachment-based ideas, and client-centered techniques. She tailors each plan to a person's needs instead of focusing only on labels or diagnoses.

People who appreciate a therapist who is straightforward and encouraging often find her style helpful. She aims to build a space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to try new strategies. Taylor emphasizes small, doable steps toward clearer communication, better emotion regulation, and healthier routines.

She invites prospective clients to ask questions before starting so they can decide if it feels like a good match. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on availability.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match what matters to them. It often focuses on values, small behavior steps, and accepting uncomfortable feelings while moving toward goals. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current connections and emotions, and it helps people understand patterns in close relationships and build new ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick or blend methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Clients and the therapist check in regularly to see what is helping and adjust the plan together.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life. Online work can reduce travel time and make it simpler to keep regular sessions. Because the biography did not list specific session formats, confirm available options before booking so you know what will work best for your routine.
