Aisha Tambo (she/her), SEP

My name is Aisha and I am a queer, Indigenous Australian (Juru, Birri Gubba, Moa) and South Sea Islander woman with other lineages from the South Pacific ocean and Europe.  I've been settled in Tkaronto, (Dish with One Spoon Territory, Treaty 13) since 2009, and have spent many years working frontline in social services.  I am trained in Somatic Experiencing (SE), an approach to resolving trauma through the body, and the nervous system.  I also come from a lineage of healers and my practice is a blend of somatics, energetics and spirituality.  As a non-psychotherapist, my work is more beneficial to folks who have already done psychotherapy or counselling and/or are aware that I will not be able to provide that type of clinical support in sessions.

Over the years, my work has involved supporting folks individually and in community settings who have been involved in justice, anti-racism and anti-oppressive work through direct actions and other means.  Inherent in my approach is curiosity about the ways that we can come (back) into relationship with ourselves, our communities, land and ancestors as ongoing decolonial work.  I don't have the answers, but I can hold space for folks to listen, feel, sense, understand, imagine, dream and (re-)remember so that the path can emerge.
