Kathryn Taylor , BACP

Kathryn Taylor combines 12 years of therapeutic experience with an award-winning background in the logistics sector that spanned more than twenty years. During her corporate career she was repeatedly recognised in industry top 100 lists and received a Leader of the Year award for her work supporting, mentoring, coaching, and developing people across organisations. That senior-executive experience gives her a practical understanding of the pressures of large organisations - from leading teams and delivering targets to managing conflict and seeking work-life balance.

Kathryn trained as a coach in 2011 and qualified as a behavioural analyst in 2013, then added counselling qualifications later that year to respond to increasing workplace mental health needs. In 2017 she established her own practice to focus on the parts of her work she found most fulfilling, blending counselling and coaching for individuals and businesses. She is registered with BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which reflects her standing in the UK counselling profession.

Working integratively, Kathryn adapts her approach to suit each person and organisation. She supports people with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, trauma and abuse, self-esteem concerns, career transitions, addictions and a range of life changes. For businesses she offers coaching for managers and executives to build leadership, influence, team performance and strategic clarity. Kathryn also works with individuals on career planning, motivation, goal setting, health-related goals and personal development, helping clients move toward sustainable, lasting change.

Approaches Kathryn Uses for Online Counselling and Coaching

Kathryn draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, non-judgmental space where clients lead the pace and focus of sessions - this approach supports self-exploration, relationship concerns and issues of identity and self-esteem. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns to reduce anxiety, depression and stress-related symptoms. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is another tool in her toolkit, useful for deepening emotional awareness and repairing attachment ruptures in intimate and family relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kathryn works collaboratively with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences and the challenges they bring, adjusting techniques over time as needs change. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy or coaching feels practical and relevant.

Online sessions through video calls, phone appointments, live chat or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy lives and for people who live outside a therapist's immediate area. These options allow clients to access licensed professionals and therapists from different locations, fit sessions around work and family commitments, and maintain progress even when schedules or circumstances change.
