About Steven
Steven Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with eight years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, anger, sleep and eating concerns, parenting strain, ADHD, mood disorders, and related worries. Steven lists a range of concerns he helps with, including career strain, compassion fatigue, and issues tied to adoption and caregiving.
He favors a straightforward, talk-based approach. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. He listens to what matters most and helps people set small, doable changes. Conversations aim to reduce intense reactions, manage frustration, and improve daily routines.
Steven uses several therapeutic methods depending on the need. He draws on client-centered techniques to keep the conversation focused on the person. He uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. He also integrates dialectical behavior strategies, EMDR for trauma work, and mindfulness practices when these fit the goals.
In early sessions he clarifies immediate concerns and makes a plan together. That plan can include skills for handling anger, strategies for sleep and eating, or steps for coping with grief and life change. He tracks progress and adjusts the plan as needed.
Sessions are described in plain language and aim to translate ideas into everyday habits. The subscription-based scheduling system is used for sessions and can be canceled at any time.

How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting the person's concerns. Online sessions using this approach focus on clear conversation, checking what matters most, and shaping goals that fit daily life. It is useful for people who need someone to follow their priorities and help organize next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In remote sessions this becomes practical homework, short exercises, and step-by-step behavior changes aimed at lowering anger and anxiety. CBT works well for routine problems like sleep, worry, and workplace stress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches specific skills for tolerating strong emotions and improving communication. Online meetings can introduce these skills, practice them together, and then follow up on applying them between sessions. DBT-style skills often help with impulsive reactions and relationship strain.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences and suggest whether CBT, DBT, client-centered work, EMDR, or mindfulness practices make sense. That decision is made together and can shift as progress is tracked.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, remote work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, enable shorter check-ins during a break, or avoid travel time. Ask about the specific session types offered when you complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
