Cindy Barnes

I'm passionate about community and connection with all beings. I've held The Work That Reconnects and The Council of All Beings for my local community, for organisations large and small, and for activist groups. In my day job, I provide counselling and psychotherapy for highly sensitive people (people with sensory processing sensitivity). I also work as an organisational consultant as a facilitator, coach and in conflict resolution.

I'm a member of the Climate Psychology Alliance and provide free therapeutic support through them for people experiencing eco-anxiety and eco-grief.

I trained in WTR with Chris Johnstone in 2008 and then with Joanna Macy on a 7 day intensive at Findhorn in 2009. I helped Chris edit and publish The Great Turning Times for a number of years. I've founded a solar CIC, my local Transition Town, a wildlife charity and am a trustee of a national rewilding charity and a national eco-choir. Prior to my therapy career I spent 30 years in senior business positions.
