About Trisha

Trisha Taylor is a California licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 14 years of experience helping people facing parenting challenges and related life stresses. She aims to offer a calm, nonjudgmental space where parents can talk through difficult feelings and get practical strategies that fit their lives. She uses approaches that prioritize the client’s voice and real-world change.

Sessions focus on clear goals like managing anxiety, reducing conflict, or coping with grief.

Background and approach

Trisha often combines person-centered care with cognitive-behavioral techniques to turn stressful patterns into manageable steps. Trisha works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, depression, anger, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. She also supports people through family-related strains like blended family issues, adoption and foster care matters, divorce and separation, and parenting-specific challenges.

Her background includes a Master’s degree in Counseling completed in 2011 and a long history of coaching and psychotherapy work. As an LMFT she draws on a mix of therapeutic tools to meet each client where they are and help them move forward at their own pace.

Sessions are offered in English and delivered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Trisha describes her work as practical and compassionate, focused on small changes that add up to better daily functioning.

Online support

How her approaches translate to online parenting support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s lead. It helps parents feel understood and clarifies what they want to change in daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and breaks them into small steps to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, or change parenting routines. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication during conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Trisha collaborates with clients to pick or blend methods that match their goals, values, and home life. She will check in and adjust techniques so the plan stays useful and realistic for a busy parent.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation when schedules permit. Phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and messaging are convenient for short updates, quick coaching, or when a written exchange fits better into a day. These options offer flexibility so parents can fit therapy into work, childcare, and other commitments.
