Taylor Villano
License Master of Social Work
It’s your life: let’s make it all about you.
My goal is to support you, your child, or your whole family identify and prioritize core wants and needs to thrive in creating the life you want. My approach to therapy relies heavily on empathy and building connection to ensure a sense of safety and comfort during treatment.
I’m here to help you unlock your full potential
Maybe you’re a parent who’s concerned about your child’s strong emotions, and wants to find them (and you) some help and guidance.
Maybe you’re a teen, or parent of a teen who’s seeking self-discovery, struggling with social pressures, hoping to find confidence, or in need of support to achieve your goals in high school, or beyond.
Maybe you’re a young adult who struggles with low self-confidence/self-esteem, anxiety that gets in the way of living your fullest life, and/or unprocessed trauma.

Children: I specialize in helping children (and parents) improve emotional regulation and behavioral problems. For example, I’ve worked with many families where parents have felt tapped out, and at a loss as how to help their child with issues related to anxiety, anger, and a general struggle with managing big feelings. Being a little kid is hard, and so is being a parent! I am committed to working with both you and your child, to find a new normal, and help the entire family address issues to improve connection, and find more peace at home.
Teens & Young Adults: I also have a lot of experience working with teens and young adults typically struggling with anxiety, trauma, self-esteem issues and/or those living with ADHD.

I'm deeply passionate about helping children, teens, and young adults facing anxiety, trauma, and low self-esteem. For parents seeking treatment for their child, I offer comprehensive support, working closely with both your family and child. Together, we'll delve into your story, navigate your complexities, and address all emotions and thoughts. We will create goals to overcome obstacles, foster positive thinking, and enhance self-confidence & self-esteem to make this your best life possible.

I have a bachelor's degree in psychology and a masters degree in social work, with over 5 years of experience in the field. Additionally, I’ve worked as a behavior therapist for young children and adolescents. I am EMDR trained, CBT & DBT trained, and currently enrolled in classes learning about psychoanalytic psychotherapy through the Michigan Psychoanalytic Institute. I value a variety of evidence-based trainings including behavioral methods, and will be TF-CBT trained in the near future to further assist clients with a PTSD diagnosis.
