Deirdre Chitwood - Certified Tellington TTouch Practioner


About Deirdre

Deirdre has always had a love and passion for animals. During her childhood growing up in the English countryside there were always animals in her family. Her life has been full of many rich and wonderful experiences with animals from saving baby ducks to rescuing stray dogs and feral cats. Animals seem to be attracted to her and have a way of seeking her out.

Having studied healing techniques for the past 30 years she feels very grateful to have found the Tellington Method which gives her a way to combine her love of animals with her skills of healing. Deirdre studied the Tellington Method 2-year Practitioner Certification Program in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and the U.K.

Born in the U.K. where she worked as a professional journalist for many years, Deirdre moved to the States with her American husband in 1987. She has recently co-authored a children’s book on pet care and written educational leaflets on animal care sponsored by the British Veterinary Association Animal Welfare Foundation.

She currently lives in Stuart, Florida with her husband and 5 cats. She frequently offers her time and skills to local animal shelters.
