The Nature of Our Services
TaylorMade Leadership provides professional coaching, behavioural coaching, executive coaching, business coaching, personal-development coaching, performance coaching, educational programs, training and related consulting services.
Our services are designed to help individuals and professionals clarify goals, improve effectiveness, develop productive behaviours and habits, strengthen focus and accountability, improve decision-making, overcome performance barriers, and make meaningful changes in their personal and professional lives.
TaylorMade Leadership is a coaching and educational service. Our services are not psychotherapy, psychological treatment, counselling, medical treatment or healthcare services.
No Psychotherapy or Mental-Health Treatment
TaylorMade Leadership and its coaches are not acting as psychologists, psychiatrists, psychotherapists, physicians, counsellors, social workers or other regulated healthcare professionals unless expressly stated otherwise.
TaylorMade Leadership does not provide:
- Psychotherapy or psychotherapy treatment;
- Psychological assessment or diagnosis;
- Diagnosis or treatment of mental illness or mental-health disorders;
- Medical diagnosis, treatment or advice;
- Psychiatric assessment or treatment;
- Crisis intervention;
- Trauma therapy or trauma treatment;
- Treatment for addiction or substance-use disorders; or
- Any other regulated healthcare service.
Coaching may involve discussion of a client's experiences, beliefs, behaviours, habits, emotions, relationships, challenges, setbacks or goals. Such discussions are conducted for coaching, education, personal development and behavioural-change purposes, and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent a psychological, psychiatric or medical condition.
The fact that a client discusses difficult, painful or significant past experiences during coaching does not mean that TaylorMade Leadership is providing psychotherapy or clinical treatment.
Appropriate Professional Care
Coaching is not a substitute for psychotherapy, counselling, medical care, psychiatric care, psychological services or other professional healthcare.
If a client is experiencing a medical or mental-health concern, significant psychological distress, a crisis, or an issue that falls outside the scope of coaching, the client is responsible for seeking appropriate assistance from a qualified and regulated professional.
TaylorMade Leadership may recommend that a client consult an appropriate professional where, in the coach's reasonable judgment, an issue appears to fall outside the scope of coaching or would be more appropriately addressed by another professional.
In the event of an emergency or immediate risk of harm, clients should contact 911, a hospital emergency department, a crisis service, or another appropriate emergency resource rather than relying on coaching services.
No Diagnosis or Clinical Assessment
TaylorMade Leadership does not diagnose conditions, disorders or illnesses and does not represent that coaching will diagnose, resolve, treat or cure any medical, psychological or psychiatric condition.
References to behavioural science, neuroscience, psychology, human behaviour, stress, emotions, mindset, trauma, past experiences or related subjects are provided for educational and coaching purposes only and should not be interpreted as a clinical assessment or diagnosis.
Client Responsibility
Coaching is a collaborative process. The client remains responsible for their own decisions, choices, actions, behaviour and results.
TaylorMade Leadership provides observations, questions, strategies, education, perspectives, accountability and recommendations intended to assist the client in pursuing the goals established through the coaching relationship.
No particular result or outcome is guaranteed.
Individual results vary based on many factors, including the client's circumstances, effort, consistency, decisions and implementation of strategies discussed during coaching.
The client remains solely responsible for determining whether a particular strategy, decision or course of action is appropriate for their circumstances.
Business, Financial and Professional Advice
Business, leadership, sales and performance coaching is intended to provide education, perspective, strategy and coaching support.
Unless expressly stated otherwise and provided by an appropriately qualified professional, TaylorMade Leadership does not provide legal, accounting, tax, investment, securities, insurance, medical or other regulated professional advice.
Clients should obtain advice from an appropriately licensed or qualified professional where such advice is required.
Confidentiality
TaylorMade Leadership respects the privacy and confidentiality of information shared during coaching.
However, coaching confidentiality is not necessarily equivalent to the legal or professional confidentiality obligations that may apply to regulated healthcare professionals.
Information may be disclosed where required or permitted by law, where necessary to protect a person from a serious and imminent risk of harm, or in other circumstances required by applicable law.
Clients should not provide information that they do not wish to have recorded or retained.
Scope of Coaching Relationship
The coach-client relationship is a professional coaching relationship. It is not a doctor-patient, therapist-client, psychologist-client, solicitor-client or other regulated professional relationship.
TaylorMade Leadership reserves the right to decline, suspend or discontinue coaching where the client's needs fall outside the scope of the services offered or where another form of professional support would be more appropriate.
No Guarantee of Results

Testimonials and examples of client experiences represent individual experiences and should not be interpreted as a guarantee that another client will achieve the same or similar results.
