I had an award winning career spanning over twenty years working in the logistics industry being recognised by the industry in the top 100 list several times and having the honour of winning leader of the year award in recognition of the work I did supporting, mentoring, coaching and developing individuals within the organisations I worked for.
I help all my clients achieve sustainable and lasting results and my background as a senior executive at director level enables me to understand the motivations and challenges of working in large organisations, leading teams of people and delivering targets, dealing with conflicts and achieving work life balance.
I have been qualified as a coach since 2011 and a behavioural analyst in 2013 due to more and more employees presenting with personal/mental health issues I decided to learn more and became a qualified counsellor in 2013.
In 2017 I decided I wanted to focus more on the areas of my career I found most fulfilling so set up my own business as a Counsellor and Coach supporting individuals and businesses.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kathryn Taylor. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I felt immediately comfortable speaking with Kathryn. She listens and asks the right questions. I feel I am able to understand some of my thoughts and emotions more clearly when we speak.

Kathryn's approach to explain how our body and what we eat biologically affects our mental state has helped me to manage my anxiety better. Kathryn is the first therapist whose therapy approach works best for me due to her ability to explain the reasoning why our mind behaves in certain way. I have consistently practiced her recommendation ever since and I am surprised to find out the better place I am to be now.

I’ve had a lot of therapists over the past 10 years and I can honestly say that Kathryn is the best therapist I’ve ever had. She’s attentive, intelligent, wise, knowledgeable and always gives practical suggestions that greatly benefit me. I couldn’t recommend her enough.

Kathryn is a great therapist, she listens to understand, is direct, personable, and overall I've found working with her very helpful. When I first linked in with Kathryn I was feeling a lot of distress, a few months later with her support I have been taking positive steps forward and despite some recent set backs I can respond more effectively and have a more optimistic outlook, thank you.
