Supporting leaders, organisations and independent business owners to flourish, thrive and stay stress free

Cat Taylor - Therapist, Leadership Coach and Neurodiversity Specialist

BSc, BA, HCPC, BAOT

Hi! I'm Cat, a registered therapist and coach specialising in work-related stress, burnout, anxiety and working with neurodiversity.

I work with organisations and individuals. supporting clients to shift from feeling overwhelmed, out of control (physically and emotionally) and spending the working week in fight or flight to living life on their terms and giving of their best every single day.


I facilitate transformative change

Whether you’re an independent business owner feeling like you need to be everything to everyone, a CEO finding it exhausting at the top or an organisation creaking under the pressure of stressed-out staff, consider me your personal guide.

I combine a powerful combination of therapeutically informed coaching to re-frame the mind and trauma informed regulation work to re-set the nervous system. This gives me the unique ability to work with individuals and teams on all levels, to recover from the debilitating effects of work-related stress, including:

  • Overwhelm and burnout

  • Chronic pain and muscle tension

  • Fatigue

  • Anxiety and other nervous system disorders

  • Gut health issues

When you work with me I’ll walk alongside you for as long as you need, gently giving guidance and helping you to find yourself once more and fully heal from work-related traumas, however big or small. 

I’ll also teach you or your organisation all of the evidence-based tools and techniques needed to look after the mind and body long-term, learning new behaviours and healthier ways of functioning in the world of work.

Why work with me

Because I’ve been in your position and I know just how tough it is. 

I have over 2 decades of experience working within the non-profit, private and public sectors and have carried out a variety of roles, from Team Leader and Services Manager to acting CEO. But the system’s broken and we currently live in a world that continually tells us we’re not doing the job right unless we’re exhausted, overwhelmed and always switched on.

However, what I know from my background as a Therapist is that if we keep giving 110% then eventually something will break, whether that’s our motivation for the job, the enthusiasm of our staff or our own mental (and physical) health.

So whether you’re a Sole Trader feeling swamped by the weight of keeping your business afloat, an Non-Profit looking for some bespoke mental health training or a Leader who’s starting to realise you can’t do it all on your own, Fear not - I’ve got you covered.
