Taylor McNeely, LCSW
About me
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Daring Way™ Facilitator (CDWF) practicing in Waco, Texas. My therapeutic practice centers around teens, adults, and families facing challenges such as divorce, eating disorders, traumatic experiences, self-harming behaviors, grief/loss, and abuse. My approach is to resource my clients with tools so they are empowered with the ability to create a more secure, healthy, and loving relationships. I also work to create an atmosphere and a dynamic set of coping tools for the client to be more powerful and directive in their own life choices.
What I love so much about my practice is discovering what resonates and supports each person’s specific process the most. All of us heal and express life differently and the work I do with my clients is individualized and specific to them. Through creativity, many of the challenges and traumas can be resolved in a powerful way.

Taylor is the first therapist I've seen that I feel like truly there for me and listens. She makes opening up so easy and comfortable. I highly recommend!

I'm two sessions in and this woman is phenomenal. I can tell she really listens and tries to gain an understanding of what's going on in my life. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Taylor is friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. She listens and gently encourages conversation about hard topics, which is very helpful.

I have never felt more understood and connected with a therapist like I have with Taylor, nor have I ever experienced the amount of growth I have with her.

I've been having sessions with Taylor for 9 months now and I've seen significant progress on all points of the list of things to work on I came into therapy with. Taylor is great at leading me through deconstructing assumptions I didn't realize I had, and confronting the implications and impacts they have on my behavior and understanding of others and myself.

I have been working with Taylor McNeely for a few months now. I value her opinion and she has helped me with several issues that I felt needed to be addressed by a professional and not just close friends incites. I would recommend her highly.
