Therapy
for queer folk, creatives and peeps who question the status quo…
Let's sit with the parts of you that learned survival before safety, so they feel seen, heard, supported.
Hi, I’m ess
I work with people who’ve learnt that being themselves and following their innate instincts is not ok. When we over compensate or shrink small in an effort to guarantee our ok-ness, we can start to fear or forget our truest nature. This makes us feel temporarily safe, but ultimately…sad af, dissatisfied, disconnected, burnt out, searching, empty, alone..
I support folks to process the experiences that lead them into self rejection, and reclaim the fullness of who they are. Left unchecked, past experiences will shape the ways we show up in the world. Observing and tending to our patterns can facilitate healing and change. The result… deepening the relationship we have within, and feeling safer to express our desires and share ourselves with others.
I’m a psychotherapist, ex-social worker, creative, queer, dog parent. I value shaking up the status quo and am invested in decolonisation. I enjoy dropping an F bomb, moon gazing and dancing down the aisles at grocery stores.
Gestalt Therapy
an invitation to awaken to your embodied experience of relating to self and other in the present moment. Where relational patterns, emotions, stories, urges can be revealed, explored and tended to with intentional care.
Somatic Focusing
a gentle journey inward. Calling attention to the felt sense—those subtle, unspoken feelings—inviting them into the light of awareness. Bringing clarity to inner confusion, allowing unarticulated pain or longing to find expression and release.
Parts Work
an exploration of the inner landscape, where fragmented voices of the self come forth, each holding a story and a purpose. Welcoming these parts with compassion, guiding them into supportive relationship.
“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.”
