More about Taylor

- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Daring Way™ Facilitator (CDWF) practicing in Waco, Texas. My therapeutic practice centers around teens, adults, and families facing challenges such as divorce, eating disorders, traumatic experiences, self-harming behaviors, grief/loss, and abuse. My approach is to resource my clients with tools so they are empowered with the ability to create a more secure, healthy, and loving relationships. I also work to create an atmosphere and a dynamic set of coping tools for the client to be more powerful and directive in their own life choices.
What I love so much about my practice is discovering what resonates and supports each person’s specific process the most. All of us heal and express life differently and the work I do with my clients is individualized and specific to them. Through creativity, many of the challenges and traumas can be resolved in a powerful way.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Taylor is the first therapist I've seen that I feel like truly there for me and listens. She makes opening up so easy and comfortable. I highly recommend!
I'm two sessions in and this woman is phenomenal. I can tell she really listens and tries to gain an understanding of what's going on in my life. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Taylor is friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. She listens and gently encourages conversation about hard topics, which is very helpful.
I have never felt more understood and connected with a therapist like I have with Taylor, nor have I ever experienced the amount of growth I have with her.
I've been having sessions with Taylor for 9 months now and I've seen significant progress on all points of the list of things to work on I came into therapy with. Taylor is great at leading me through deconstructing assumptions I didn't realize I had, and confronting the implications and impacts they have on my behavior and understanding of others and myself.
I have been working with Taylor McNeely for a few months now. I value her opinion and she has helped me with several issues that I felt needed to be addressed by a professional and not just close friends incites. I would recommend her highly.
I have been in therapy for over 5 years, and Taylor is the best therapist I have ever has. She makes me feel safe and understood, and she creates an environment that feels both comfortable and motivating to push for growth and change. She explains things in a way that is easily understandable. She also has great humour and recommendations!
I've only met with Taylor a couple times "officially," but I can already tell she is a wonderful counselor. If you are lucky enough to get her as your counselor, she is definitely a good pick. Of course, you might think differently, and she totally understands that too.
Taylor has been great in all matters, specially through the pandemia it was very conforting to have someone to talk to. She has also helped me with my personal relationships and professional goals. She is very versatile, always shares great tools and helps me navigate my emotions
Taylor has been extremely helpful and encouraging to me. Over the past few months, I’ve made a lot of progress and look forward to my sessions with Taylor a lot.
Taylor has been a great counsellor so far she is understanding and listens without judgement. It is great to be able to text her in between sessions to talk through issues that are happening in real time.
Taylor is great. She listens, empathizes, and gives me tools and other ideas to help me. I always feel better after talking with her. I’m really glad I decided to start this.
