Kathryn Taylor , BACP

Kathryn Taylor brings an unusual blend of senior executive experience and therapeutic training to her counselling and coaching practice. Her award-winning, twenty-plus year career in the logistics sector included repeated recognition in the industrys top 100 list and a Leader of the Year award for her work mentoring, coaching, and developing people within complex organisations. That background gives her a practical understanding of the pressures of leading teams, meeting targets, managing conflict, and seeking a healthier work-life balance.

She trained as a coach in 2011 and qualified as a behavioural analyst and counsellor in 2013, and she later established her own practice in 2017 to focus on the aspects of work she found most rewarding. She is a member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - reflecting professional registration with a national counselling body.

As an integrative counsellor she adapts her approach to meet each persons needs, working with individuals and businesses on issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, bereavement, abuse, depression, and workplace challenges. In her coaching work she supports employees at all levels, from first-line managers to executives, to develop leadership, influence, team-building, goal clarity, and strategic planning. Kathryn also works with individuals on career direction, motivation, personal development, health and fitness, and spiritual questions, helping them move toward sustainable, lasting change.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Kathryn Taylor integrates several well-established methods to tailor care to each person. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgmental space where the client leads the conversation and the therapist offers empathy and support - it can help with self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, goal-oriented approach that explores how thoughts influence feelings and behaviours and offers tools for managing anxiety, depression, and unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and change emotional responses within close relationships, making it useful for couples work and issues around attachment and intimacy.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kathryn works collaboratively with each person to identify methods that fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She blends techniques when needed so therapy remains relevant and effective for the individuals situation.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy schedules and for those living far from services. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend sessions from home or work, and access support that fits around personal and professional commitments. Licensed professionals, including therapists like Kathryn, use these formats to offer accessible, client-focused care.
