Kara Taylor
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with individuals struggling with behaviors like hair pulling (trichotillomania) and skin picking (excoriation). These patterns can feel automatic and difficult to stop, but they are highly treatable. Together, we’ll build awareness of triggers, develop alternative responses, and use structured strategies to reduce urges and regain control—without shame or judgment.

8 Years Experience
Online in Philadelphia, PA Pennsylvania
Philadelphia's identity as a historically working-class city with deep neighborhood roots shapes its therapy culture, with demand for therapists who understand economic stress, community violence, and the psychological weight of living in a city marked by stark racial and economic disparities. The city is home to world-class institutions including the University of Pennsylvania Health System, Jefferson Health, and Temple University Hospital, with a strong academic psychiatry and psychology community feeding into its private practice ecosystem. Philadelphia's large Black and Latino populations drive demand for culturally affirming therapists, and the city has a growing network of therapists of color across its diverse neighborhoods. Many practices are accessible via SEPTA, making therapy more reachable for clients across the city without cars.
