Taylor Kent (Gibbs)

Taylor Kent (Gibbs) is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Indiana with about nine years of experience. She trained at Indiana University and has worked across age ranges, most often with adults and adolescents. Common concerns she has addressed include trauma, anxiety, depression and mood disorders, self-harm, and difficulties adjusting to life changes.

Her approach is warm and down-to-earth. She aims to create a space where a person feels heard, respected, and able to be themselves. Sessions are conversational and collaborative, and she uses humor when it fits the moment.

Taylor focuses on strengths and practical skills. She helps people notice what already works for them and build new strategies to meet concrete goals. Treatment plans are tailored to the person, not a diagnosis or label.

She draws on a range of methods such as cognitive and dialectical behavior therapy, attachment-based ideas, and acceptance-based tools. These are mixed to suit the situation rather than used as rigid rules.

People who are looking for a supportive, steady therapist may find her style a good match. She encourages questions before starting so you can feel comfortable with the fit. If you want to explore anxiety, anger, parenting stress, or recovery from trauma, she offers practical help and steady guidance.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It uses mindful noticing and practical actions to manage difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test them with real-life experiments to change patterns of behavior. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships affect current reactions and helps people build more helpful ways of relating to themselves and others.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and comfort. That decision can shift over time as progress and priorities change.

The biography does not specify which online session formats Taylor offers, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let someone continue therapy if they move or travel internationally. A conversation at the start will clarify pacing, session length, and whether those arrangements match day-to-day needs.
