About Align Counseling
Meet Taylor
The therapist who will actually show up for you — grief, family conflict, trauma, and everything in between.
Authentically Connected
Taylor Chumley,
M.A., LPC-A
Supervised by Cassie Harlan
I'm Taylor Chumley, a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (LPC-A) based in Magnolia, TX. I specialize in grief, family conflict, and trauma — and I work with teens, young adults, and adults who are ready to stop white-knuckling through life and start actually healing.
My approach is trauma-informed, somatic, and rooted in Internal Family Systems (IFS) — which means we pay attention to how your past shows up in your body today, and we work with all the different parts of you with compassion instead of judgment. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. I tailor every session to what you actually need.
I take a personalized approach to therapy, understanding that no two people are the same, and I tailor my methods to suit each individual's unique needs. I uphold a promise to myself to show up imperfect and authentic in each session, just as I hope my clients do. If you're looking for a therapist in Magnolia, TX, Align Counseling is guided by warmth, clarity, and a genuine commitment to your healing journey.

My Journey
How I got here
The year I decided to become a therapist
I wrapped up my undergrad in psychology at the University of Texas at Austin and decided to take the leap into a master's program in clinical mental health counseling. I also started my own therapy journey to understand what it truly feels like to sit in the other chair — and that experience made me even more committed to helping others.
The year I finished my Clinical Mental Health degree
Completing my master's degree at Liberty University was an exciting milestone. Along the way, I got hands-on experience working in private practice and with foster youth, figuring out what kind of therapist I wanted to be.
The year I became a therapist & private practice owner
I officially became a licensed therapist in Texas and finally launched Align Counseling in Magnolia, TX, specializing in grief, family conflict, and trauma therapy. There's nothing like the feeling of creating a space where people can finally exhale.
To be continued
The work continues, the practice grows, and the commitment to showing up fully for every client never changes.
