Tayler Flores MS, LPC, NCC, PMH-C
I am the owner of The Nurturing Circle Counseling & Wellness Center, LLC and a Licensed Professional Counselor with extensive experience in the mental health and drug & alcohol fields. I work with individuals, couples, and families, providing compassionate care tailored to each person’s unique needs and goals.
I specialize in supporting clients through a variety of challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and life transitions. My approach is holistic, focusing on the interconnectedness of mental, emotional, and physical well-being.
In addition to my clinical experience, I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), a powerful therapeutic tool that can help individuals heal from past trauma and emotional distress. I also have a strong background in perinatal mental health, working with individuals navigating the complexities of pregnancy, postpartum, and family dynamics.
My goal is to create a safe and supportive space where you can explore your challenges and build resilience, leading to lasting change and growth. I look forward to partnering with you on your mental health journey.

Erin Donnelly MS, LAPC
I am a Licensed Associate Professional Counselor at The Nurturing Circle Counseling & Wellness Center, LLC. I hold a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from Duquesne University and provide affirming, relationally focused therapy for individuals and couples navigating life’s challenges and transitions.
I specialize in working with people exploring their gender, sexuality, identity, and self-worth—particularly those within the LGBTQIA+ community. I also work with individuals who are processing the impact of religious or spiritual experiences that may have felt restrictive, confusing, or harmful. Whether you’re working through anxiety, navigating change, or feeling disconnected from yourself or others, you deserve a space where you feel seen, heard, and understood.
In our work together, you’ll find a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where you can explore your emotions, build self-compassion, and move toward meaningful change. My approach is grounded in Person-Centered, Relational Cultural, and Narrative Therapy, with a deep belief in the power of connection and authentic expression.
My goal is to help you gain clarity, challenge unhelpful patterns, and foster greater confidence and connection—so you can live more fully and authentically.

LPC
COUNSELOR
Hello and welcome to The Nurturing Circle Counseling & Wellness Center, LLC. My name is Amber Rose-Smith and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master's in Counseling and certification in Trauma, Loss, and Violence. I work with children, teens, and young adults.
Life can feel overwhelming at times. Anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions can make it difficult to move forward or feel like your authentic self. Children, teens, and young adults today face intense pressures—from bullying and shifting moods to struggles with self-esteem—often earlier than ever before.
I am passionate about helping individuals break free from the cycles that keep them feeling stuck and overwhelmed. Together, we can create healthier, more effective ways to navigate life’s challenges and build a sense of balance and resilience. My goal is to provide a space where you feel truly heard, understood, and empowered to find your voice.
In our work together, I challenge clients to explore new perspectives and identify what truly matters to them. By recognizing and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, we can begin to foster meaningful growth and lasting change. I take an individualized, collaborative approach—tailoring each session to support healing of the mind, body, and spirit.
You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel validated, respected, and encouraged. I will listen, believe in your experiences, and walk alongside you every step of the way. No question is too small, and no one deserves to feel lost.
