By day, Kathleen Taylor is mostly a healthcare consultant and communication coach. She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and her specialty is helping clinicians develop skills to communicate compassionately and effectively with people who are seriously or terminally ill. She has been working in and around end-of-life care for nearly 25 years, and finds it a never-ending source of inspiration. She also does other consultant things like program development, strategic planning, and facilitation, all with a focus on enhancing clarity, communication, and connection. By night (or sometimes late afternoon), Kathleen can usually be found performing or teaching improv comedy, because improv is like yoga for communication skills. She currently performs with a house team, is a teaching artist at American Stage Improv, and she performs with a few independent teams around Tampa Bay as well.
