Stas Taylor, LCSW — Therapist in Texas

Hi there, I'm Stas!

I am a therapist who believes that therapy should feel both grounding and practical. I help individuals and families navigate life’s transitions, strengthen relationships, and build meaningful lives with compassion, clarity, and real-world tools.

My focus

I work with clients 13+ navigating adoption, foster, or blended families, life transitions, stress, identity, and relational challenges. I also support neurodiverse clients and families, integrating both clinical expertise and lived experience.

My approach

My approach is collaborative and grounded in trauma-informed, attachment-based care. I blend insight with practical strategies, drawing from TBRI, CBT, TF-CBT, EMDR, and Motivational Interviewing to create a plan tailored to your goals.

My communication style

Clients describe my style as calm, direct, and supportive. I offer a space that feels safe and validating while providing clear guidance, practical tools, and space for honesty—and humor—when it helps the process.

My journey to mental healthcare

We clarify what matters most and build a plan that fits your strengths and daily life. I blend reflective work with concrete skills, helping you create meaningful, sustainable changes that support emotional balance and resilience.

My goals for you

I take a collaborative, strengths-based approach. We clarify what matters most to you, identify practical and meaningful goals, and break them into manageable steps. Together, we create a plan that fits your life and supports both immediate relief and long-term growth.

Our first session

Your first session focuses on comfort, clarity, and understanding your story. We explore what brings you in, identify priorities, and discuss what you hope to change or strengthen. You’ll leave feeling heard and with a clearer sense of direction for our work together.
