Jeffrey Taynton (LMFT)

I am licensed in California and I have been providing therapy for children, teens, and adults for nine years. I work hard to ensure that clients feel valued, understood, and accepted just as they are because this provides the foundation for effective therapy. When rapport and trust are established, the change process becomes available. I believe that people change by actively modifying the way they think, feel, and act in their daily lives. Therefore, I aim to help clients develop the insight, tools, and skills they need to make the changes they desire. I emphasize practical plans for applying new skills and tools learned in therapy sessions. I use interventions and tools from various approaches such as Person-Centered Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and EMDR. I have experience in helping clients with a range of issues including depression, unresolved traumas, difficulty regulating or accessing emotion, relationship issues, and communication problems. It is a true privilege to partner with clients in their journeys toward a better life.
