Keeping Body and Mind Together - Part One

Born on Islay in 1968, Kathleen’s family moved to Angus on the Scottish mainland when she was just a few weeks old and it was in Kirriemuir that she went to school and spent her first 17 years. Morayshire in the north of Scotland became Kathleen’s home when she moved there in the mid 1980’s to train as a nurse. It was during her 10 years in Moray that Kathleen became interested in Buddhism, mindfulness and spirituality. It was the writing of Vietnamese monk and author Thich Nhat Hanh who gave Kathleen her first introduction to Buddhism in his book, “Transformation & Healing.” In 2003 Kathleen re-trained in Ericksonian solution focused brief therapy at Regent’s College, London, attending Regent’s college again a year later to train in Reverse Therapy. Since then Kathleen has gone on to successfully teach over 1500 individuals how to free themselves from the debilitating symptoms caused by conditions including, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, obsessive compulsive disorder, irritable bowel syndrome, non-specific pain and more. Kathleen runs regular clinics in Dundee, Aberdeen, Shetland & Forres, however in the last 4 years clients from a worldwide community have been able to return to a life free from symptoms by working with Kathleen by telephone. Clients working with Kathleen have come from as far afield as USA, Canada, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Qatar, Malta and other European countries.
