About Tayla

Hi, my name is Tayla.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Play Therapist in the state of Missouri.

I provide play therapy to children ages 2-14 years, and I provide therapy for teens 14-19 years.

I also provide CPRT,  parent consultation meetings and a CPRT group for parents because sometimes we just don't know what to do. 

I am a mom of a very energetic 5-year-old. I enjoy spending time at home with my partner and our son. We like to go camping, biking, hiking, off-roading, swimming, walks, and all kinds of things.

I love being creative, painting, learning, singing, bowling, scrapbooking, and playing!

I also enjoy helping others, and that is why I continue to see clients and why I wrote two positive self-talk books.

"Affirmations, Thankfulness, and Gratitude" and "Positive Self-Talk for Kids and Teens."

I am dedicated to helping others in their healing journey.

I want to be that support for you and your family.

You and your family deserve to feel happy, you deserve to feel loved, and you deserve to feel at peace again.
