Collectors MD is proud to announce the addition of Traylor Disbrow, LPC-A, to their growing referral and support network.

Traylor is a therapist based in South Carolina who brings both clinical expertise and lived experience to the challenges collectors face. His work spans anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, gambling recovery, and the powerful pull of “immediate gratification” behaviors—whether in collecting, technology use, or spending.

Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Attachment Theory, Traylor helps clients understand the root of their compulsions while building healthier habits and resilience. His background includes facilitating alcohol and drug recovery groups, working directly with individuals struggling with gambling behaviors, and candidly sharing his own journey with compulsive collecting.

Traylor recently joined founder Alyx Effron on The Collector’s Compass podcast, where he spoke openly about the addictive patterns embedded in collecting, the importance of honest self-reflection, and how peer support and therapy can work hand-in-hand to create lasting change.

Collectors MD has always been about creating a bridge between peer support and professional resources. By welcoming professionals like Traylor into our network, we’re ensuring that members have access to trusted voices who understand both the mechanics of addiction and the unique dynamics of the hobby.

Traylor provides licensed therapy to residents of South Carolina, and offers informal 1:1 conversations and support to collectors nationwide.

Collect With Intention. Heal With Support.
