Great to meet you!

My name is Marian Taylor, a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with an MSW from Boston University. I am currently licensed in Utah and California.

Life presents unexpected challenges, leaving us feeling diminished, stuck and in pain. I offer my witness and compassionate support to your story and struggles. We work together to empower a unique journey of change. Using complimentary approaches, I help clients to find healthy perceptions of themselves and strengthen their relationships so they can feel more whole. I appreciate opportunities to help clients combat anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, chronic grief and loss, relational conflict, eating disorders, low self-esteem, life transitions, addictions, parenting challenges, women's issues and caregiver support struggles.

What you can expect from me

Growth often emerges from struggles. Your feelings are a guide to your values that can help move you toward a more meaningful path. I believe in your power to overcome and that you can use your personal strengths to transform discomfort and empower change. If you feel I would be a good fit for your journey, I would love to support you.
