Based in her cosy cottage in Whins of Milton near Stirling, Louise Cullen set-up Tranceform in 2016 to provide mindfulness coaching in a nurturing, creative and inspiring atmosphere. She and her associates are all passionate about passing on the benefits of regular mindfulness practice and the wonderful act of self care. Learn more about the people behind Tranceform below. 

Louise Cullen ​Pg Dip. Assoc. CIPD. Mindfulness Coach

One of the founding members of Tranceform, Louise now runs the business from her base in Stirling.  A human first and foremost, she wants to share her knowledge and love for mindfulness with others.  Louise believes in bringing mindfulness into everyday life in a real, practical way that works with your lifestyle.  This means it is accessible to everyone.  

Following an intrigue in working in a different way, she partook in a 10 week Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course at the University of Strathclyde.  This life changing course has had a direct impact on her wellbeing,  family and friends.  Louise trained as a Meditation Facilitator with the University of Strathclyde where they offer a mindfulness meditation practice each day for staff and students.  She also completed the Mindfulness Foundation Qualification and Mindfulness Certificate Qualification from the Mindfulness Association which took place at Samye Ling Tibetan Centre in Dumfries and Galloway.  She is a current member of the Mindfulness Association and the CIPD.

Louise has developed her own eight session coaching programme and carries out 1-2-1 coaching and practice either one off or over 8 sessions.  There are regular 8 week programmes and workshops taking place too.  Louise has also recently worked with some wonderful corporate clients including Creative Scotland, Anderson Strathern, Prudential, The National Galleries of Scotland, The Smith Art Gallery and Museum, Brown Forman, CIPD, Kained Holdings and Moet Hennessy.  Louise has a postgraduate diploma in HR Management and is currently developing further programmes in Mindfulness which will be available soon.

Married to Andrew, stepmum to Mimi  and mummy to Harris and Indie.  She also has two small black hairy dogs, George and Coco.
