Systemic Psychotherapy -
Supporting you to improve relationships
& mental health
Systemic Psychotherapy seeks to understand individuals in their multi-faceted contexts.
A person's wellbeing can be affected by various experiences, leading to mental health and relational challenges.
Systemic Psychotherapy therefore
appreciates the individual as a relational being.
Hello There!
My name is Shakira Nkanang. I offer Systemic Psychotherapy for individuals, couples, families and teams. Sessions are available online or in person in Peterborough, UK.
I work in a supportive and collaborative way, helping you clarify your goals and move forward with confidence. My approach is respectful and shaped by the unique context of your life. This may include your experiences as an individual, a parent, a carer, a partner, a friend or a professional.
Whether you're navigating personal struggles, relationship challenges or workplace tensions, therapy provides a space to pause, reflect and grow.
Systemic psychotherapy can support you with relational and mental health challenges. It helps to identify and shift unhelpful patterns, change dynamics and improve communication. This approach supports lasting change in how people connect, collaborate and thrive. It can be effective within family relationships, friendships and workplace teams.

My approach is respectful and responsive to the unique context of your life. This may include your experiences as an individual, a parent, a carer, a partner, a friend or a professional.
Starting psychotherapy can feel like a significant step, especially during times of difficulty or transition. While it may involve challenge and uncertainty, it can also create the conditions for meaningful and lasting change.
I work with people across all ages and life stages. My practice is inclusive and welcoming of all backgrounds, identities and experiences.

Courage is getting the help you need when you need it.
We cannot tell you how much we appreciate the patience, guidance and support you gave us. We truly believe that without you we would not be where we are today.

I was able to get back on track after I lost my way.

I reached out to Shakira to do anti racism work together as I was experiencing negative feelings towards race and cultural differences. Through careful listening and engaging with my life experiences, Shakira supported me to navigate where these patterns arose from. With compassion and care Shakira helped me to recognise those feelings and move forward with clearer communication, boundaries and empathy. Shakira created a safe environment and brought joy into the process that often involved challenging questions and honesty from us both. I have gained a lot of knowledge and understanding of myself from systemic psychotherapy which has touched many aspects of my daily life, I wholeheartedly recommend the practice.

I didn't know how much stress and anxiety I was holding inside until I started talking about my life.
