About Taylor
Taylor Kent (Gibbs) is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Indiana with nine years of experience. She has a master's degree in social work from Indiana University and has worked mainly with adults and adolescents.

She aims to build a relaxed, conversational space where people feel heard and respected.
Background and approach
Taylor uses a collaborative style and brings encouragement and a sense of humor when it fits. Her approach emphasizes a person’s strengths rather than labels or diagnoses. Taylor draws on a mix of practical strategies.
She uses cognitive and dialectical behavioral techniques alongside acceptance and attachment-informed ideas. Mindfulness and narrative work are also part of her toolkit. Treatment plans are tailored to each person’s goals and situation.
Sessions are meant to help clients recognize strengths and develop step-by-step strategies. She helps people practice skills for managing intense emotions, improving communication, and coping with life changes. Taylor also supports work around identity concerns and relationship difficulties.
She welcomes questions up front so people can find the right fit. The process starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on availability. Taylor aims to help clients feel empowered and understood as they work toward their goals.
How Taylor’s approaches translate to online therapy
Taylor commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in her online work. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and practice small actions that match those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people build healthier ways of relating.She also uses client-centered techniques that prioritize the person’s perspective and lived experience. That means sessions are guided by the client’s goals and pace, and Taylor works together with clients to choose which approaches fit best. Deciding on an approach is a collaborative process that can change as needs and goals evolve.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill reminders, or flexible communication between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives while using the same therapeutic approaches that guide in-person work.
