The Feel Good Island and Mindful Island owe their existence to Catherine Jackman, Principal Clinical Psychologist. Catherine has over 20 years experience in supporting people with intellectual disabilities. Catherine's vision of creating computer based interventions for people with intellectual disabilities and years of work, research and dedication  led to the creation of these interventions.

Both games build on the successful Pesky Gnats programme, a computer based CBT programme for use by mental health professionals who work with children and adolescents developed by Prof. Gary O Reilly and Dr. David Coyle.

Feel Good Island was created by Catherine Jackman and Drs Gary O'Reilly,  David Coyle and and Patricia Cooney.

Mindful island was created by Catherine Jackman, Clinical Psychologists Dr. Colette Clyne, Dr. Michael Tully and Dr. Megan White and Music Therapist Tracey Jones.

The original Pesky gNATs was designed and developed by Handaxe CIC, a not-for profit Community Interest Company founded by David Coyle and Gary O’Reilly.

The Pesky gNATs website is operated by Opposable Games Limited
