About Taylor

Taylor Kent (Gibbs) is a licensed clinical social worker with nine years of experience working in Indiana. She has a master’s degree in social work from Indiana University and has spent much of her career helping adults and adolescents navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mood and adjustment concerns.

She emphasizes a welcoming, nonjudgmental approach where people can speak openly and feel heard. Her style is conversational and relaxed. She uses humor when appropriate and centers the person in front of her rather than the diagnosis.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on practical skills and noticing strengths that can be used in everyday life to reach goals. Taylor often draws on cognitive behavioral strategies and dialectical behavior tools to help with thinking patterns and emotional regulation. She also integrates attachment ideas to look at how relationships shape reactions, and uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people live by their values.

These methods are adapted to each person’s needs and pace. Parents or caregivers looking for support around parenting, stress, grief, or relationship strain will find a therapist who listens and helps build workable strategies. She also works with people facing addiction, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, and identity questions such as gender dysphoria.

Taylor aims to make planning collaborative. Therapy moves at a person’s rhythm and focuses on small, clear steps. Her goal is to help people feel more capable, understood, and able to tackle the challenges that brought them to therapy.

Online support

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on changing patterns of thinking and behavior with practical exercises and skill building to reduce symptoms like depression and anxiety.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, daily routines, and what feels workable. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan if something isn’t helping. This collaborative process helps tailor therapy to the person rather than applying a single fixed method.

Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging offer brief, flexible check-ins and tools to stay connected between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family lives and to continue work from different locations.
