Taryn Borsch, LCSW (she/her)
Therapist and Ketamine/Spravato®-Assisted Therapy
Taryn is a queer, cisgender woman and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2019 who is committed to co-creating space for healing and collective liberation through authentic connection. Taryn has predominantly French and German heritage, as well as Ashkenazi Jewish lineage in Ukraine and Russia, and is a descendent of the Lakota currently residing on the Cheyenne River Reservation.
Taryn was raised in the Christian Science religion and has since stepped away from organized religion, which informs her sensitivity to the spiritual and existential journeys many people experience as they reclaim their own beliefs, bodies, and truths. She holds reverence for the ongoing process of reconnecting, reckoning, and listening to the ancestral wisdom and historical pain held within these and other identities.
Taryn believes therapy is inherently political and that healing cannot be separated from the systems that shape us. Instead of centering whiteness and individualism, neglecting the cultural, intergenerational, and systemic forces that contribute to suffering, her work seeks to decenter colonial frameworks, honor lived experiences, and co-create a space where racialized, ancestral, and systemic trauma can be named, felt, and transformed.
Taryn offers a trauma-informed, anti-racist, and identity affirming practice that holds all of you — your grief, joy, rage, ancestral memory, spirituality, and the parts of yourself that have been silenced. She works not as an expert on your life, but as a partner in your healing, growth, and unlearning while honoring your resilience. Taryn specializes in trauma therapy and has training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Processing Therapy for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Taryn has particular experience and passion for working with indigenous peoples of the United States, formerly incarcerated people, identity exploration and liberation of LGBT community, and on religious harm. She is also poly/non-monogamy friendly.
Outside the therapy room, Taryn lives with her partner Rose and cat Coraline. She enjoys dancing, reading, singing, and hiking.
