A place to meet yourself more fully

Person-centred, body-informed psychotherapy in Edinburgh and online, in English, Portuguese or Spanish.

Therapy can be a place to pause and notice what is happening inside you, at your own pace. I aim to offer a relationship grounded in safety, confidentiality and care, without judgement. You are the expert of your own experience, and I believe we are all geared towards health and healing, doing the best we can with what we’ve got.

Ways we might work together

About me

Hello, I'm Gabi

I was born and raised in London to Brazilian parents, and I work in English, Portuguese and Spanish. Before training as a psychotherapist I was a birth doula, and I now support refugee and asylum-seeking mothers with a UK-based charity.

More about me
