Brenda Davies

Born and raised in County Durham, UK, Dr Brenda Davies - Psychiatrist, psychotherapist, medium, author, broadcaster and spiritual teacher, is a very happy mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She has lived a fascinating life which has taken her around the world many times. As Principal of the Brenda Davies International School of Healing and Spiritual Development, she has taught in England, Ireland, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, the USA, Turkey, Cyprus, Bali, Zambia, Zimbabwe, South Africa and elsewhere. She has loved doing peace and conflict resolution work in many countries that have been ravaged by war. Her great love is Zambia, where she spent many happy and exciting years, however, she is now happily settled in Wales. Her first attempt at fiction was in her twenties while she was pregnant with her second child. The manuscript still lives in a cupboard at home. Her real writing career began at 55 with the publication of The Rainbow Journey. Several non-fiction books on spirituality and health followed, including Journey of the Soul, which was nominated for the Kindred Spirit Award. At the age of 78, she turned to fiction with her debut novel 'The Girl behind the Gates,' which will hopefully be released as a major feature film in the not-too-distant future. At 82, she is happily settled in Wales, where she still works full-time - now mainly online - and writes at every possible spare moment. She loves life and people and nature and is very happy with her lot. She hopes you will enjoy her books and some of which she still has to write. Hopefully, her second novel will be published soon.
