SG Taylor Coaching psychology
Realise potential with psychological clarity
Based on a strong foundation of psychological principles, I work with clients to help them to identify and address factors standing between them and increased performance, further achievement, and an enduring sense of wellbeing.
What is coaching?
Coaching is a collaborative, goal-focused process that empowers individuals to unlock their potential, navigate change, and achieve meaningful outcomes.
Rooted in psychological insight and active listening, coaching provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore challenges, clarify values, and build confidence.
It’s not about giving advice or fixing problems—it’s about facilitating growth through structured reflection, powerful questions, and actionable strategies.
Is it the same as Counselling?
No.
Coaching and Counselling are on a similar spectrum, however, there are some important differences.
Therapeutic counselling should only be undertaken by those specifically trained to deal with issues which might arise, such as trauma and issues around mental health.
There needs to be a clear boundary between this and coaching. If you are unsure, then have a brief conversation with your potential coach and they will either be able to work with you, or signpost you to where might be the best place to assist you.
I like to think of it like this...
A Counsellor can help you to get to the race. A Coach will help you get to the finish line.

Neurodiversity
Having been diagnosed with adult ADHD after the age of 40, I have a lived understanding of the difficulties of living with a neurodiverse condition in a neurotypical world. I also have an appreciation of the effects that receiving an ADHD diagnosis as an adult can have on our identity and understanding of ourselves.
Being able to extend my existing coaching skills to allow me to help people going through the same journey I have been, and am still on, has been very rewarding.

"Whatever your situation, background, or experience, by working with the right coach I truly believe that anyone can achieve goals previously thought of as impossible."
Stephen Taylor GMBPsS
Psychological Coach
"Working with Stephen has been transformative. I came in feeling stuck and overwhelmed, unsure how to move forward in both my career and personal life. Through thoughtful questioning and psychological insight, I’ve gained clarity and confidence. I now feel more focused and empowered to take action." - JM
"I was initially nervous about coaching, but the supportive and professional approach made me feel at ease straight away. I’ve noticed a real shift in my mindset – I’m calmer, more decisive, and I actually believe in my potential now. Friends and colleagues have even commented on the positive changes." - CT
"The sessions gave me a safe, non-judgemental space to untangle my thoughts. I came away from each one with fresh insights and clear actions. The progress I’ve made in just a few months is more than I expected – I feel like I’m finally moving in the right direction." - DS
"The sessions helped me see patterns in my thinking that were holding me back. Having the space to explore these with a coach who really understood both the psychology and practical side was invaluable. I’ve not only achieved my goals but developed tools I can keep using long-term." -AR
