GENTLE SUPPORT AS YOU NAVIGATE LIFE’S TERRAIN
There is a deep well of inner resources, guidance and wisdom - that resides within you. Take your first step to rediscovering yourself right here.
LAY DOWN THE MASK & LIVE IN ALIGNMENT
Does this sound like you?
The MASK.. The FACADE — strong, successful, responsible, dependable, weak, emotional, too sensitive — however on the inside, many struggle with exhaustion, feeling unseen, self doubt, shame, unsure of purpose and even self loathe.
At Kikaya, we hold a safe space to unpack the weight you’ve been carrying, heal unresolved wounds, strengthen boundaries, and reconnect with your sense of self — without judgment and without having to be “the strong one.”
RECLAIMING YOUR IDENTITY
Longing for a deeper understanding of who you are beyond expectations, roles, and survival mode. Seek to rebuild your confidence, strengthen your voice, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that feel authentic, capable, and grounded.
CARRYING TOO MUCH
Anxiety, self-doubt, or past wounds feel heavy, leaving you disconnected from the person you once knew yourself to be.
CAUGHT IN THE CYCLE
Overthinking, fear, and exhaustion keep looping, and all you want is to feel a sense of ease again.
LONGING TO RECONNECT
Deep down, you’re yearning to rediscover your true self - the confidence, clarity, and wholeness you know is still there.
STRUGGLING IN RELATIONSHIPS
Emotional distance, Recurring conflict, or people-pleasing patterns leave you questioning your worth and identity.
LET’S FIND A WAY BACK TO YOU
How I can help
01
COMPASSION INQUIRY THERAPY
A gently exploration of unconscious beliefs, emotional patterns, and childhood experiences that shape present behaviours and relationships. Through mindful, compassionate dialogue; this modality supports healing trauma, reducing anxiety, and reconnecting with your authentic identity in a safe and non-judgmental space.
02
TRAUMA-INFORMED CARE
A framework that recognises how past trauma affects mental health, relationships, and nervous system regulation. Safety, sensitivity, and empowerment at its core. This modality focuses on restoring emotional stability, strengthening boundaries, and promoting long-term resilience without re-traumatisation.

Our Values
Hey, Alicia here
Award-winning Psychologist, Therapist & Life Coach. It’s great to meet you!
I believe people deserve a space where they can be honest, seen, and supported without judgment. I also believe in the power of restoration. My empathy and deep curiosity to understand identity, purpose and childhood experiences lead me to the profession. I know what it feels like to carry responsibility, to strive, to question yourself, and to want clarity. In our work together, I bring both professional training and genuine presence. My approach is compassionate, grounded, and respectful of your story.
MY APPROACH
My doctorate training emphasised an evidence based, collaborative approach. This is something I value and embrace in my work. I use scientifically proven therapeutic approaches, typically CFT, CBT and ACT to help you reach your goals.
