Keyonna Taylor, LSCSW

Keyonna Taylor is a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW) with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and life transitions. Her style is down-to-earth and nonjudgmental. She aims to partner with clients and treats them as the experts on their own lives.

She creates an inclusive space for people of different backgrounds and identities. She draws on a mix of approaches to meet each person where they are. Sessions often involve practical skills for coping, clearer ways to think about problems, and steps to move toward meaningful change.

Keyonna commonly works with concerns such as relationship strain, grief, parenting stresses, mood disorders, and issues related to identity and multicultural stress. She also supports people dealing with substance use, first responder challenges, postpartum and perinatal concerns, and pain from past abuse or trauma.

In practice she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered techniques among other methods. These methods are applied in everyday language and with concrete tools clients can use between sessions. Her approach blends coaching, problem solving, and emotional support.

People who choose her often want a therapist who listens, offers practical strategies, and works alongside them. She encourages active collaboration on goals and plans. Sessions aim to build clearer thinking, better coping skills, and a path forward that fits each person's life and values.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Keyonna commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence, which can help with anxiety, depression, and everyday stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy emphasizes values and small committed actions to build a meaningful life, useful for coping with change and persistent distress.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. She will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest approaches that fit. This collaborative process means techniques may change as therapy progresses based on what is helping most.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls work well for longer sessions and skills practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, quick coaching, and follow-up between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule work around busy lives and to keep steady progress from home or while traveling.
