About Tomi

Tomi Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who brings nine years of clinical experience to her practice. She focuses on clear, practical help for stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, parenting concerns, ADHD, and related challenges. Tomi aims to make therapy understandable and useful for everyday life.

Tomi uses mindfulness practices to help people notice what’s happening in their minds and bodies. She combines that with client-centered work to follow each person’s own goals. Attachment-based ideas guide her when relationship patterns and early bonds affect current struggles.

Her background includes work across a wide range of concerns, from grief and career stress to chronic illness, neurodevelopmental differences, and post-traumatic stress. She has experience supporting people coping with fertility, caregiving strain, social anxiety, and sexual assault and abuse. This breadth helps her adapt tools to fit each person’s situation.

Tomi trained academically in counseling psychology and holds LPC and LCPC credentials. She has substantial experience working with autistic people and with families navigating complex needs. That experience includes roles as a case manager, resource coordinator, and client advocate.

She aims for short, focused sessions that fit busy lives and for practical strategies that can be used right away. Tomi encourages people to bring specific concerns such as sleep trouble, parenting stress, relationship communication, or workplace anxiety to start shaping a plan together.

How mindfulness and attachment ideas shape online care

Tomi often uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice thoughts, feelings, and body sensations without getting overwhelmed. Mindfulness can be useful for anxiety, stress, sleep trouble, and building steady attention. Attachment-Based Therapy helps look at how early relationships influence current patterns, which is useful for family worries, relationship communication, and some forms of trauma.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that match your needs. Together you can decide whether to focus on mindful skills, work on thinking and behavior patterns, or address attachment wounds over time.

Session logistics and formats should be confirmed before booking, since the biography does not list specific session types here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, school, and family obligations. It can also allow shorter check-ins, evening or weekend scheduling, and fewer commutes so therapy fits into a busy day. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for use between sessions to help progress outside appointment times.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
