Gina Moppett

She/Her
Psychotherapeutic counsellor

Hello, my name is Gina. I am a trauma informed Psychotherapeutic counsellor. As a person-centred therapist, my counselling support extends to a wide range of emotional and psychological concerns, and I endeavour to offer you a safe, welcoming space to whatever you bring and whichever experiences you carry.

Life sometimes presents us with challenges and experiences that may feel difficult to express. My therapeutic support extends to people from all walks of life, no matter what your experiences are! As an African and a member of the BAME/BIPOC communities, I have had the experience of witnessing the climate crises unfold in Africa with detrimental effects to black and brown communities and I therefore appreciate the difficulty that comes with expressing the challenging feelings of eco-related distress or overwhelm due to the climate and ecological crisis. I therefore aim to help those who have been directly or indirectly affected by the climate and ecological crisis, have committed to climate activism, or are the family/friends of activists. Our therapeutic sessions together will be grounded in the principles of creating a warm, compassionate and welcoming space where trust can develop and where you can feel heard and deeply valued.

I work with a psychologically informed understanding of intersectionality and the challenges that come from oppression and generational trauma and aim to provide a space to explore your thoughts and allow you to reach a place of self-understanding and healing, to break generational cycles and build resilience.
