Background and approach
Dr. Baylor combines approaches that help people understand their feelings and change unhelpful thinking. She draws on cognitive behavioral tools to name and shift troubling thoughts.
She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape emotional responses. Clients who want concrete skills often practice coping tools between sessions. That might include simple mindfulness exercises, behavior experiments, or short thought records.
The goal is to build habits that reduce intense mood swings, impulsivity, or addiction urges. She also supports people working through grief, trauma, parenting strain, self-esteem struggles, and women’s issues. Her approach adapts to each situation so sessions stay relevant and manageable.
Dr. Baylor aims to help people take the next practical step toward steadier mood and clearer choices. She meets people where they are and helps them move forward at a realistic pace.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships affect feelings and reactions. It helps people see patterns in closeness, trust, and worry so they can try new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It gives straightforward exercises to change thinking patterns and reduce anxiety, depression, or impulsive choices.Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, past attempts, and what feels doable. From there she recommends strategies and adjusts them as progress is made, so the plan fits the person's needs and lifestyle.
Online sessions can happen by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and teaching skills. Phone sessions work well when internet bandwidth is low or when a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text sessions let people send short messages and practice skills between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, and family schedules while keeping continuity of care.
