About Kathleen
I have a passion for heart-centered living and the cultivation of consciousness in everyday life. I am an ordained CoreLight minister. I draw upon the wisdom and teachings of Leslie Temple-Thurston, founder of Corelight, as a primary foundation in my mentoring, teaching and constellations facilitation. Leslie's detailed explanations of consciousness along with specific processing and clearing tools provide a invaluable road-map for my learning and sharing.
I practice Family and Systemic Constellations and am a graduate of the Seattle Constellations Institute. Family Constellations allows a structure for working within a systemic field to reveal the hidden dynamics that, when acknowledged, can release patterns of stuckness and suffering, allowing an opening to healing, compassion and clarity.
I work with both groups and individuals. I have developed a signature technique in my Constellation practice for working with individuals that allows for clients to find their own truth. The client “reads” objects and gives details of the underlying dynamics in a given situation. I collate the information that is given to create a structured narrative based on the details reported.
I've been gifted with a deep, soul-level sense of humor that allows me to walk with clients into some the darkest areas of the psyche with grace and a revelatory lightness. While tears and grief are often part of the process, many clients also experience a physical release that comes with laughter.
I offer gratitude for the indigenous teachers in my life who have helped me to develop a relationship with the subtle aspects of nature and awareness. In my late teens, I was welcomed into the Cofan community in the Upper Amazon Basin of Ecuador, where I had my first experience of disconnecting from the modern world and opening into a more primal connectedness with the land. I have been influenced by the wisdom and experience of Martin Prechtel who has brought forward the eloquence and beauty of the Tzutzujil Maya of Guatemala. I have also had the tremendous privilege of spending time with South African traditional healers, the High Sanusi, Credo Mutwa and Virginia Rathele in their family compound in Kuruman, South Africa on the edge of the Kalahari Desert, where I received powerful transmissions of Zulu Cosmology.
My commitment to consciousness permeates every aspect my life, from teaching mentoring and facilitating to the daily aspects of living. My intention is to be of support in clearing and opening pathways for a profound access to conscious awareness.
