Race, Culture and Identity Issues

Race, Culture and Identity Issues

Small round Tikambe Therapy logo

Being of dual heritage (Black African and Indian) I know first-hand the difficulties and challenges that come with living with multiple identities in a world in which systemic racism impacts and influences decision making processes in various life arenas.

For those racialised as non-white there can be a lot to navigate and understand about identity ‘who am I’ and ‘how’ to show up and authentically find place in the Western world, especially when there is a history of migration in the present/previous generations.

Learn more about my experience.

How I can help.

  • Navigating systemic racism in the workplace

  • Interracial romantic connections / family dynamics

  • Balancing tradition and modern living

  • PTSD post racially aggravated assault

  • Dealing with microaggressions

  • Self esteem / self belief

How I work.

My own personal experiences of trauma, pain and grief taught me that we cannot be our best selves whilst we’re carrying the weight of what is unresolved in our bodies, hearts and minds. This inspired me to take up space and play my part in helping others heal and work through what may be holding them back from moving forward and living a fulfilled life.

What I do:

provide a safe space

co-create a way of working together with you

be confidential

move at a pace comfortable for you

What I don’t do:

diagnose you

judge you or what you bring to our sessions

give advice

mentor you, I won’t be sharing my experiences
