Online Therapy for Anxiety & LGBTQ+ Support in Utah, Idaho, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, South Carolina & Florida

Therapy That Feels Like a Deep Breath

Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, especially if you're dealing with persistent anxiety or exploring your LGBTQ+ identity. Through specialized online therapy for anxiety and LGBTQ+ affirming counseling, I provide compassionate, evidence-based support to individuals across Utah, Idaho, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, South Carolina, and Florida. Whether you're in a rural area or a bustling city, my telehealth services ensure that high-quality mental health care is accessible and convenient for you.

Do Any of these resonate with you?

  • You feel lost and uncertain about your future.

  • Daily tasks have become overwhelming due to anxiety.

  • Moments of joy have diminished, replaced by constant worry.

  • A sense of meaning and purpose seems out of reach.

  • Overthinking leaves you mentally and physically exhausted.

If so, I’m here to help.


Anxiety can undermine your happiness, even after significant achievements. You might find yourself dealing with persistent intrusive thoughts and chronic overthinking. Your inner critic may trap you in a cycle of self-doubt and indecision, causing you to question the direction of your life.


Embracing your true self can be challenging, particularly when facing non-acceptance from family or community. This quest for acceptance may lead to feelings of isolation, as you seek spaces where you can authentically express yourself without fear of rejection.


Despite your efforts in therapy, you might feel perpetually stuck in a state of stress. If chronic anxiety, constant overwhelm, trauma responses, or focus difficulties are hindering your ability to be present, the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) offers a therapeutic approach to help recalibrate your nervous system.

 

I’M TAYLOR GARFF (he/him).

I understand there’s nothing more important to you than your well-being.

I am an authentic, gentle, and kind counselor who understands how overwhelming life can feel sometimes. As a gay therapist, I know firsthand the importance of having a space where you don’t have to explain or defend who you are—where you can just show up as yourself and feel fully supported. I provide care for those experiencing excessive worry, confusion about their past, and feelings of panic, offering a safe space to work through life’s challenges.

I listen carefully—not just to what you say, but to what might be underneath the surface. My goal is to help you untangle emotions, make sense of your experiences, and move forward with more clarity and confidence.

Choosing a therapist is personal. Here’s what makes my approach unique:

🌈 LGBTQ+ Affirming & Trauma-Informed – As a gay therapist, I create a space where all identities are respected, and you don’t have to educate your therapist about LGBTQ+ experiences. Whether you're questioning, coming out, or just need a therapist who gets it, I’m here.

💭 Anxiety & Overthinking Expert – Specializing in high-functioning anxiety, racing thoughts, and self-doubt, I help clients break free from patterns of overthinking and stress.

⚡ Practical & Insightful – My approach blends deep emotional processing with actionable coping tools so you can leave therapy with strategies that work.

💻 Flexible & Accessible – I offer online therapy in Utah, Idaho, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, South Carolina, and Florida, making it easier to get support from the comfort of home.
