Carol Logan
Instructor/Mentor
In my former life, I was a dietitian manager and Community dietitian with the National Health Service but became frustrated that my original training had taught me nothing about how my patients’ behaviours drove their eating patterns. This motivated me to study an honours degree in Psychology, and then a diploma in Advanced Counselling and Therapy Skills as well as to take a PostGraduate diploma in Drug and Alcohol Studies.
By then I realized I wanted to work at a deeper level than dietetics permitted so I moved into counseling, volunteer supervision and training with Adult Incest Survivors for 6 years.
At last I felt I was really getting to the root of people’s troubles, but now I know I was just getting started. I had not realised just how much trauma our bodies can hold on to. This was brought home to me forcefully when a pain I had experienced in my hip for many years was shown to have its origins in the suppressed emotions brought about by early and prolonged hospitalisation.
After over a thousand hours of counseling and psychodrama training I realised that I wanted to work with the emotions people hold in their bodies.
I have been practicing SHEN since 1993 and have been an instructor/mentor since 1998. I have led Workshops in Greece, England, and Scotland. I have mentored interns living in Norway, Sweden, and New Zealand as well as in the UK. I left SHEN and am now working to develop and promote Kairos so that more and more people can benefit from this wonderful therapy in the way that I have.
I have a growing interest in spiritual matters and intuition. This is blended with a mind that likes scientific inquiry and good experiential as well as theoretical evidence. I maintain a Kairos practice and live in Edinburgh with my husband and two nutty cats. I love the architecture of Charles Rennie MacIntosh.
