About Talia

Hi, I’m Talia Taylor (formerly Talia Leamy), the Clinical Psychologist behind Taylor Made Minds. With many years of experience working in private practice and school settings, I have developed a comprehensive understanding of the challenges people face at various stages of life.

While I enjoy working with people of all ages, I am particularly passionate about supporting adolescents and their families. I’ve published research on key challenges affecting teenagers, including addiction, impulsivity, anxiety and sleep, which has further deepened my understanding of this often-overlooked age group.

My approach to therapy is grounded in ensuring I develop a solid formulation and understanding of each individual person’s life, challenges and goals.

I draw from a range of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Metacognitive Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Imagery Rescripting, among others. This flexibility allows me to work collaboratively with each person to find the most effective approach for their unique needs.

I am known for being down-to-earth, warm and approachable with a good sense of humour - traits I believe help create a comfortable environment for meaningful change. My therapy style is trauma-informed and relationship based, which means I take an inclusive and compassionate approach to understanding and supporting your experiences.

At Taylor Made Minds, I am dedicated to providing a personalised, safe space for you to explore and grow. I look forward to working with you to help you unlock your potential and live the life you deserve.
