"My utmost love and gratitude go to Catriona and Bob for their time spent with me in my journey to heal and rediscover my purpose in life.  In a time where I was so sad they helped me to find out where the root of my sadness came from and give me the strength to walk through what scared me the most in my life at the time.  Catriona’s energy work was instrumental in my growth and was truly an amazing part in my journey.  I only wish I was closer to her now so that I could continue to receive the gifts she gives in these sessions.  I found with both Bob and Catriona that they were completely committed to my process even in our group settings.  The ladies group that Catriona facilitated is a strength I can pull from even today and the friendships / connections I made there will stay with me for a lifetime. I would not be the person I am today if it wasn’t for them and I am eternally grateful for all their love."

“I have known Bob Harris since 1993 when we first began working together as colleagues at The Leadership Institute of Seattle. Bob made a strong contribution to that community in his role as a consultant to both students and faculty. Since we worked on the same team together, I had many opportunities to observe and admire the quality of Bob's work as a Systems Consultant. In this position, which he held for 8 years, he brought the highest level of professionalism and personal integrity, and demonstrated the ability to understand and respond to the complex dynamics in both small groups and larger organizations.  Through this work, combined with his 20 years of experience as a Marriage and Family Therapist and facilitator of Mens Groups, Bob has honed his skills in preparation for perhaps the inevitable outcome of his professional life:  he is now an excellent listener and quiet observer, and consistently has the ability to bring a grounded and authentic presence to his work. 

After years of consulting with Bob and witnessing his personal and professional growth, I can whole heartedly endorse and support his new work as an Integrative Consultant. This is a man who walks his talk. His own personal development and his commitment  to the healing of the whole person, has prepared him well for his work as a leader of Groups, and with his wife, Catriona, as a co-consultant to Couples, Families, and Small Businesses”.

“Catriona doesn't resolve your issues for you---she helps you clear essential paths that have been obstructed, by others and by you, and gives you the space to make your individual and spiritual progress.  She is totally present and intuitive when working and is able to "cut to the chase,"  even when you might want to "take the long way home."  My life is richer and fuller and healthier from my work with Catriona.” —D.

 

“I was a client of Catriona’s in Seattle circa 1998, when an event triggered a deep depression.  I was in unbearable emotional pain, not knowing how to go on with my life, sheltered and afraid.  From my first session with Catriona, I felt an immediate comfort, as if she had already known me for sometime.  I found she really understood me, in a way nobody had before.  Catriona gave me real physical tools to create the change I desperately needed, and at the pace I needed. Through Catriona’s guidance in individual and women’s group sessions, I became a person much more tolerant of myself, confident, grounded, and engaged in my life.  Over time, I felt healed from this event. Actually, I felt more than healed; I was stronger than I had ever been. Several years passed, and in 2007 I sought Catriona’s guidance again.  Over the last 2 years I have attended Catriona’s women’s group retreats and have found even more ways to evolve and continually create the life I want to live.  I cannot imagine anyone else being able to guide me through these life changes with such elegance and wisdom.  Simply put, Catriona has saved my life in so many ways.”  —J. 

 

"I've been involved in a men's group here in Tucson a couple of times and received a great deal of personal benefit from it.  A good friend of mine, (Bob Harris), who lives in my cohousing community is starting a facilitated men's group and I thought you might find the opportunity of interest.  He is very engaging, has a strong sense of 'lived' life experience, and is highly trained.  I believe this could be the kind of group that could really open things up in a number of ways for participants.  I feel the quality of my relationships with friends and family have really benefitted over the years from my men's group involvement."

“Ten years ago, I discovered Catriona in an alternative healing directory in Seattle and little did I know, when I made that first phone call, I was about to embark on an amazing journey of self-transformation and healing that would lead to the awakening of my heart and truest Self. To this day, she continues to inspire me on my life path and her insights from ten years ago still carry teachings. Catriona has helped me to liberate myself and for that, I am eternally grateful! Her presence in my life brings to mind the beautiful words of John O’Donohue: If you could imagine the most incredible story ever, it would be less incredible than the story of being here. And the ironic thing is that story is not a story, it is true. It takes us so long to see where we are. It takes us even longer to see who we are. This is why the greatest gift you could ever dream is a gift that you can only receive from one person. And that person is you yourself. Therefore, the most subversive invitation you could ever accept is the invitation to awaken to who you are and where you have landed.” —S.

 

“Catriona approaches her practice in a grounded, collaborative and honest manner. I've had the privilege of knowing and working with her for over 10 years now and have been known to travel significant distances to take part in her wonderful women's retreats!  I've always known Catriona to pursue her own "personal work" which is integral to the work we've done together. This creates a powerful sense of trust and compassion that is hard to come by in a personal growth consultant. The Pacific Northwest's loss is Tuscon's gain, for sure. Catriona has left an indelible mark on my life.” —Y.
