LGBT therapists in San Marcos, TX

I bring a grounded, human approach to therapy shaped by a background in research psychology, a Humanist philosophy, and many years of life experience. Clients often appreciate that I show up as a real person: warm, thoughtful, and down-to-earth. You could say I’m an old hippie at heart, and I see that as part of what helps people feel comfortable, understood, and accepted.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with teens, adults, and children ages 7 and older navigating anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you feel understood and supported. I draw from person-centered therapy, attachment work, mindfulness, and I’m trained in EMDR to help process past experiences. I especially enjoy working with clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, or stuck in unhelpful patterns that you can’t seem to break? You're not alone—and you don't have to navigate things by yourself.

My name is Shardé Taylor; I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor at Taylored Therapy Solutions, PLLC. I work with individuals ages 13 and up who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, poor body image, OCD, relationship or marital issues, and school or work-related stress. I am a true LGBTQ+ ally and advocate. My Headway calendar is for consultations only.

Choosing a therapist is an important and personal decision. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and respected, while also helping you make meaningful and lasting changes.

I am a licensed psychotherapist with over 10 years of experience, and I specialize in trauma-informed, evidence-based care. As a prior military service member, I have a deep understanding of military culture and the unique stressors faced by service members, veterans, and their families. I work with both military and civilian clients who are navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, sleep and pain challenges, substance use concerns, relationship stress, and major life transitions.

Life is a Journey. On this Journey we're faced with many twists & turns. My practice style is collaborative in nature. It focuses on joint commitment to change. Yet eclectic enough to incorporate different approaches that will help clients as they write and re-write their stories to transform their reality. Whether you are looking to address LGBTQ issues, individual therapy, family or couples therapy, intimate partner violence, sexual abuse, addictions, depression or other mental health issues.
