Welcome to Starlight Family Therapy! I’m Taylor Gaffney, a dedicated therapist with five years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. My approach blends Psychodynamic Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), allowing me to create a personalized and dynamic experience for each client. I believe therapy is not one-size-fits-all, and I tailor my approach to meet your unique needs, strengths, and goals.

I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults, and families, with a particular focus on helping clients who are struggling with family dynamic issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, and underlying patterns rooted in childhood experiences. I am passionate about exploring how early life experiences shape our thoughts, emotions, and relationships, helping clients gain insight and develop healthier ways of coping.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked in community mental health, residential programs, and school-based settings, giving me a deep understanding of the diverse challenges my clients face. My goal at Starlight Family Therapy is to provide a safe and supportive space where you can uncover patterns, heal from past wounds, and build the tools needed to create meaningful change in your life.

I believe that a strong therapist-client relationship is at the heart of effective therapy. Trust, authenticity, and connection are essential in creating a space where you feel safe to explore, grow, and heal. My priority is to build a relationship with each client that fosters openness and collaboration, so we can work together to navigate life’s challenges and create lasting change.

I look forward to working with you on your journey!
