Poetry to Heal the Soul

Gillian Scarlet, a resilient and passionate poet, has transformed her lifelong battle with complex PTSD into an inspiring journey of healing through the written word.

A survivor of multiple broken relationships, insecurities, and an unemotional childhood with warring parents, her poetry delves deep into the heart of human experience and pain.

Raised partly on a farm and with a profound love for London, Gillian embraces the healing power of nature and urban life in equal measure.

Introduction to Gillian’s debut book and work as a raw and off the cuff confessional poet;

In this collection of poetry and prose you will find letters to herself and others she invites us to delve into the profound journey of an author who has transformed her pain and trauma into powerful verses. 

From childhood emotional wounds to narcissistic relationships, child loss, a devastating house fire, and the trials of infidelity, she has endured it all. 

Amidst the 2020 lockdown, she found emancipation through journaling, which blossomed into a poetic expression of her thoughts and feelings. Her words bear the weight of her experiences, carrying the essence of resilience and vulnerability. 

Through her verses, she offers solace, inspiration, and the reminder that healing is possible, even in the face of the darkest moments.
