About Trisha
Trisha Taylor, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), is licensed in California and has 14 years of clinical experience. She helps people with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. Her work also includes coaching and supporting issues around abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended family dynamics, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, domestic violence, and substance use.
Trisha uses straightforward, person-focused methods in sessions. She leans on client-centered work to follow a person’s priorities. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and DBT strategies for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Mindfulness and existential ideas appear when questions about meaning and presence come up.
Sessions are practical and action-oriented. Trisha describes her role as guiding and coaching people toward solutions. She works on skill building, behavior changes, and clearer communication. She also helps people process grief, trauma, and identity concerns when those topics arise.
Her training includes a master’s degree in counseling earned in 2011. She has practiced as an LMFT in California since completing that degree. Trisha notes experience with adoption, surrogacy, fertility-related concerns, and working through co-occurring issues such as mental health and substance use.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on following what matters most to the person. Online sessions allow the therapist to listen, reflect, and help clients set priorities for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses exercises to test different ways of thinking. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday stressors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, brings concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills are practiced and reinforced across sessions.Finding which approach fits is part of the early work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, comfort with techniques, and the issues at hand. That decision is revisited as therapy progresses to keep the work relevant and useful.
Confirm the current session formats before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the time spent traveling. Online work also makes it easier to practice skills between sessions in everyday settings. The therapist will discuss how to structure appointments and follow-ups so therapy fits the client’s routine and goals.
