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.

More about Taylor

  • 7 years' experience
  • Female
  • 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. ​

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.

There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

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.

Reviewed June 2021

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.

Reviewed April 2021

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!

Reviewed January 2021

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.
