Hello! I currently offer in-person sessions in Fayetteville, Arkansas. I specialize in working with men, women, and non-binary people on issues related to self-expression, relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, sexuality, and the stress and trauma often associated with these concerns. My practice proudly supports the LGBTQIA2+ community. I am in-network with the majority of health insurance providers in the greater Arkansas area. I work from a relational perspective to offer a safe, judgment-free environment where you can be your genuine self. As we form an authentic connection, we will begin to understand and resolve the roots of the challenges that bring you to therapy. I offer a free 20-minute phone consultation so we can begin getting to know one another. During this time, we can discuss your reasons for seeking treatment, and I can answer any questions you may have. If we determine that we are a good fit, we can schedule your first appointment. I look forward to hearing from you!

If you’ve been feeling like you’ve kind of lost yourself lately, you’re not alone—and you’re exactly who I love working with. A lot of the people I see are juggling school, expectations, relationships, and big life decisions, while quietly feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of who they really are. You might overthink everything, struggle to say no, or feel pressure to have it all figured out—even when you don’t. In our work together, you won’t get a stiff or overly clinical experience. I show up as a real person—warm, down-to-earth, and sometimes bringing in humor when it helps take the edge off. I’ll help you slow things down, make sense of what you’re feeling, and start trusting yourself more so you can feel grounded, confident, and more like you again.

I work well with students who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck while balancing school, relationships, work, family, and their own needs. You may be navigating a major life transition, struggling with self-doubt or perfectionism, or feeling like you should have everything figured out by now. You don’t have to have a clear explanation for what you’re feeling to reach out. Together, we can make sense of what’s going on, build practical coping skills, and help you feel more confident and grounded.

Therapy offers a space to slow down, connect, and be deeply heard and understood. Whether that is for you as an individual or in your relationship. Together, we can uncover patterns and explore meaningful, personalized coping tools to help you unwind and reconnect with yourself and/or your loved one. Maybe you’ve been turning the same thoughts over and over in your mind, searching for clarity, peace, solutions, or certainty—and not quite finding it. Therapy offers a space to talk through your concerns, ruminations, and vulnerable concerns at length, without judgment or interruption. My goal is to develop a deep, holistic understanding of how your experiences connect, so we can identify meaningful patterns and opportunities for growth, insight, and behavioral change. I help internalizers, people pleasers, and anxious individuals & couples—those whose minds are always racing or looping—find a place to let it out, ground themselves, and experience clarity and peace. I especially enjoy working with women, young adults, and those who dedicate themselves to making the world a better place, such as teachers, nurses, nonprofit professionals, and mothers, and I am open to working with any reflective individual or couple.

At Taylor’s Touch of Clarity, we work best with college students who feel overwhelmed, stressed, or uncertain—even if everything looks “fine” on the outside. Many of the students we support are balancing classes, work, family expectations, relationships, and the pressure to figure out their future, all at the same time. You may be experiencing constant stress, anxiety that makes it hard to focus, low confidence, or feeling stuck in your own head. Some students come to us feeling burned out, disconnected, or unsure of who they are becoming. Others are navigating depression, self-esteem challenges, relationship concerns, or major life transitions. If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and support is available. Our practice is built on creating a safe, non-judgmental space where students can openly talk about what they’re going through without feeling rushed, labeled, or misunderstood. We focus on meeting you where you are and tailoring care to your individual needs, rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. At Taylor’s Touch of Clarity, counseling is a collaborative process. We believe progress happens best when clients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their growth. Our clinicians work alongside students to build practical coping skills, increase emotional awareness, and strengthen confidence in both academic and personal areas of life. Using a client-centered and strengths-based approach, we help students identify their values, recognize their strengths, and develop tools to manage stress, anxiety, mood challenges, and relationship concerns. Our goal is not just to help you get through college, but to support you in building skills and self-understanding that will serve you well beyond it.

College can be an exciting time, but it can also feel overwhelming. Between classes, relationships, friendships, family expectations, work, and figuring out who you are, it's easy to feel like you're supposed to have everything figured out when you're still trying to find your footing. I'm Grace, and I'm a therapist who works with young adults navigating anxiety, self-doubt, life transitions, relationship challenges, trauma, identity, and the pressure to "have it all together". My approach is warm, collaborative, and judgement-free. Therapy isn't about telling you what you SHOULD do. It's a space where you can slow down, make sense of what you're experiencing, and build a life that actually feels like yours. Whether you're struggling to manage the demands of college, feeling disconnected from yourself, navigating a difficult relationship, or simply feel like something is "off", you don't have to figure it out alone. We can work together to understand what's underneath the stress, strengthen your relationship with yourself, and help you feel more confident moving forward. I offer a free 15 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit. Feel free to email me to set one up. I can't wait to meet you!

Do you feel emotionally drained, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you? I work best with individuals and teens who are struggling with anxiety, trauma, mood changes, relationship stress, academic pressure, or major life transitions. Many of my clients feel burned out by school demands, difficulty focusing, test anxiety, or fear of not meeting expectations while also trying to manage everyday stress. They’re looking for practical support that actually helps, not judgment or pressure. I offer a warm, direct, and supportive space where you can be honest, learn coping skills you can use right away, and regain a sense of control. If you’re ready to feel more confident, grounded, and capable in school and in life, you may be a great fit for my practice.

My ideal client is someone who has experienced acute mental health challenges, or may be new in their therapeutic journey altogether, and is ready to move toward stability and growth.

They want to understand themselves and their challenges better, build skills to improve self-sufficiency, and create a meaningful, prosperous life with sustainable supports in the community. I specialize in trauma-informed, ethical, and client-centered care grounded in inpatient mental health experience. I help clients develop insight, accountability, and practical skills to manage symptoms, strengthen resiliency, and transition successfully into community sustained living while prioritizing safety, dignity, and long-term stabilization.

Finding the right therapist for you is a Big Freakin’ Deal! I'm here to help you craft a life you crave. I have a knack for making people feel at ease in discussing difficult topics & won't repeatedly ask “how do you feel about that?” I take pride in not being a typical cookie-cutter therapist. Therapy is a place where you can be your true, authentic self. Authentic me is funny, creative, professional, transparent, cusses will find ways to make #hashtags therapeutic, uses quotes and other media in therapy, & sometimes share personal stories, when relevant to a topic we are exploring together. Some of my therapy “superpowers” are honoring your unique life experiences, holding them sacred, & being a gatekeeper for the information you often don’t share. I will accept you for who you are, where you're at & provide expert guidance to get you closer to who you want to be. *Now Accepting New Clients Exclusively for Virtual, Online Sessions!* You could benefit from therapy with me if: You are unsatisfied with your relationships and you keep accepting less than what you truly desire and aren’t sure why. You lie awake in bed for an hour or more unable to sleep because it feels like you can’t turn off the constant replays of the day or worries you have racing in your brain. You make “To-do” lists to help you stay organized and not forget things, but rarely cross everything off and are highly critical towards yourself about “not getting enough done.” Life feels like it is on rinse and repeat, day in and day out and you wonder if it will ever feel any different. You are working so hard to keep your shit together and simultaneously get off the struggle bus, but you feel so effing drained all the time. You thought you had “taken care of” or “were past” those awful things that happened to you so long ago, until everything recently came rushing back. You intentionally withhold sharing about your personal problems, because you fear “burdening others.” You deserve a mentally well-thy life and I am just the person to help! I will pinpoint what isn’t working and disrupt the hell out of what might be keeping you from moving onward to the next best thing for you!
