Therapists in New York

Welcome to the new wave of the future. I’m sure you may have mixed emotions about Teletherapy but let me just say you are not alone. I too had reservations when first introduced to this virtual technique but through my experience, I find, and you too will find, that this approach can be just as effective as traditional therapies and counseling sessions. My name is Dr. Traci Davis-Taylor and I am a DSW, LCSW-R in the state of New York and Connecticut . I earned my Masers Degree in Social Work through GRC-Greater Rochester Collaborative at SUNY Brockport and Nazareth College in addition to earning a Doctorate Degree through the University of Alabama. I have practiced as a Clinical Therapist for the past 16 years. I have experience working in forensic settings with incarcerated individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, addiction, stress, adjustment disorders, anger issues, self-esteem issues and personality disorders. I pride myself in practicing the classic technique of meeting individuals where they are at and not passing judgment. My style is compassionate and empathetic yet challenging to allow individuals to look deep within themselves to make the positive changes they seek. Offering a judge free zone allows for effective listening combined with a caring and understanding ear. Not every day is a good day but not every day is a bad day either. Emotions need to be released and in a healthy way. My ear is available for both good and bad days. I am passionate about advocating for those who feel they have no voice, and providing a service to those who may have limited access to care/treatment regardless of the reason. I am open to all forms of communication methods. You are free to message, email, or leave voicemail. I am willing to offer messaging, live chat and phone sessions with availability in the evening and weekends. I look forward to working with you!
