Today we’d like to introduce you to Taylor Cordell.
Hi Taylor, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstories.
I knew I wanted to become a couple’s therapist when I was a sophomore in college. I changed my major to Psychology and got hired as an assistant at a private practice for couples therapy in Houston. I learned as much as I could, got training in s*x therapy, and started my graduate program. Upon completion of my graduate program, I passed my MFT exam and started working in the private practice setting as a couples and s*x therapy. I decided with all of my previous experience running a private practice, it was time to open my own. So, I took the leap of faith and began my own private practice where I see clients as a couples and s*x therapist! I love what I do, and I love owning my own practice.
We all face challenges, but looking back, would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
It has not been a super smooth road. I had one baby while finishing graduate school and that delayed me from taking my MFT exam. I actually had to postpone my MFT exam for a while. Once I finally got around to studying and passing the MFT exam, I was then able to focus a little more on seeing clients. I then had my second baby and I had to take some time off from seeing clients again to focus on my second little bundle of joy. Both of my kids are now at an age where I am able to focus on seeing clients on my own a little more!
We’ve been impressed with Thryve Therapy and Wellness, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Thryve Therapy and Wellness is a private practice that specializes in couples and s*x therapy. I offer in-office and virtual sessions – in the evenings and weekends! I also offer a Marriage Prep Program for couples preparing for marriage.
I want the readers to know that I offer a judgement-free, safe space for them to be themselves and open up about all things in their lives!
Can you talk to us about how you think about risk?
I think risk-takers are very brave people. I typically am not a risk taker. I like to thoroughly think things through. I am well balanced out because my husband is a risk taker, and he takes enough risks for the both of us!
