1986 Janet Taylor
Family and Individual Therapist • Eugene, Oregon, USA
On Campus 1985-1986 ∙ DIPCS ’86
I’m a therapist who works with trauma and abuse survivors, often weaving healing prayer into our work. I’ve experienced quite a bit of change recently: a few years ago I got married after 39 years of being single, and a couple years after that I moved to Eugene after 45 years in Salem, Oregon. And a few months ago, I became a step-great-grandmother!
Faith and vocation:
I came to Regent because I wanted to explore my evangelical roots and integrate my counselling work with my Christian faith. My experience as a student taught me to think Christianly in both my personal and professional life, giving me a deeper foundation in my faith and a desire to apply it by thinking outside the box.
I still work in counselling today, and I continue to love my work, especially getting to watch how God sets people free. I see my mission terms of Jesus’s mission in Luke 4:18-19—proclaiming good news, freedom, and recovery. It is holy work.
