About Lacuna
the space in-between
Lacuna is a space for making peace with the in-between — the pause before words, the silence holding uncertainty, the thresahold between what you’ve known and what is still unfolding. It is a place where the parts of you that don’t yet have language are welcomed, and where mystery is met with respect rather than fear.Rooted in existential phenomenology, humanistic, and person-centred psychotherapy, Lacuna honours therapy as a process of presence, meaning-making, and discovery to find healthier and truer ways to not just cope, but to exist truthfully and effortlessly.
It is not about fixing, correcting, or arriving somewhere definitive. Instead, it is about meeting what arises with curiosity, staying close to your felt experience, and allowing your healing journey to take shape in its own time.Each session is a collaborative exploration of your lived experience — what it is like to be you, to exist, to love, to grieve, to hope, to belong, to dream. In this “in-between” space, we slow down and listen for the important pieces that require care and kindness in areas that need it most in our lives.
Whilst Lacuna uses an integrative approach through different modalities, it is important that we work collaboratively and understand what you may need session-to-session and moment-to-moment.
Here at Lacuna, we work through an extended systemic lens using a decolonising and abolitionist frameworks, situating healing within the larger contexts of social and ecological justice, & collective liberation.
“When we drop fear, we can draw nearer to people, we can draw nearer to the earth, we can draw nearer to all the heavenly creatures that surround us.”

Approaches to Psychotherapy
Lacuna draws from a range of best-practice and relational approaches so therapy can be responsive to who you are and what you need in this moment in time. Rather than relying on a single method, our work integrates modalities that support the mind, emotions, body, and deeper sense of self. This may include trauma-informed practice, attachment-based therapy, somatic awareness, parts work, and relational psychotherapy.
Together, we explore what feels most supportive for you—whether that’s understanding patterns, processing difficult experiences, strengthening emotional regulation, or deepening self-connection. Our approach remains collaborative, culturally responsive, and grounded in respect for your lived experience.
Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all process.
