Tylor CummingsLMFT

Tylor Cummings is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who focuses on practical, compassionate care. She uses person-centered work to encourage people and help them feel understood. Tylor writes plainly, listens closely, and aims to make sessions calm and approachable for worried parents.

She trained in community psychology at Saint Cloud State University and completed a master’s degree in Adlerian counseling and psychotherapy with an emphasis in marriage and family therapy at Adler Graduate School. Early in her career she was a Guardian ad Litem supporting families involved in child protection cases. That experience shaped her interest in family systems and parenting concerns.

Tylor completed a graduate internship and worked in a behavioral health clinic serving a rural Minnesota school. She has provided mental health services to children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families in clinic settings. She also holds training in DC:0-5 and ECSII and is certified in Parent-Child Interactive Therapy (PCIT).

Currently she works full time at a community mental health clinic in Minnesota. Her caseload includes assessments, individual therapy, family therapy, and couples therapy. She sees clients across the lifespan, from birth through age 65.

In sessions she combines a person-centered stance with a systemic perspective. She also uses cognitive behavioral tools when helpful. That means sessions often focus on clear, manageable steps you can try between meetings, and on understanding how relationships and roles affect daily life.

How client-centered and cognitive behavioral work translate online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and support. The therapist offers a nonjudgmental space where concerns are heard and reflected back, which can help people feel more confident when facing parenting stress, grief, or relationship issues.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) emphasizes clear, practical steps and small experiments to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT techniques often help with anxiety, mood symptoms, and managing stress during life transitions like new parenthood.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work collaboratively with each person to decide whether a person-centered style, CBT strategies, or a blend fits best based on goals, current challenges, and personal preferences.

Those practical benefits can help parents and caregivers maintain continuity of care while balancing family responsibilities.
