"Much of our lived experience is shaped by how we feel in our bodies, because the body and brain are connected. Therefore when our body and brain are healthy and in coherence our experience of life becomes far richer"
Helping you heal old patterns, regulate your nervous system and create lasting change.
Somatic Therapeutic Coaching
Hi, I’m Gina, founder of The Wellness Space. You may be ready for change, yet find yourself reacting in familiar ways, questioning your worth or feeling anxious even when you want to feel at ease. Perhaps you’re tired of fighting how you feel and want to begin relating to yourself differently.
The way we think, feel and respond to life is shaped by what we’ve lived through. Some of the thoughts we hear most often, especially the ones that tell us we’re not enough, may be old beliefs we learned along the way. They can feel true without reflecting who we really are.
How I Support You
My approach brings together somatic and therapeutic coaching, inner child work, nervous system regulation and Focusing on the felt sense.
We begin by creating space to slow down, connect with your breath and notice what is happening in your body. When your mind is racing, it can be difficult to recognise what you are feeling beneath the thoughts. The felt sense is a bodily sense of what you are carrying, even when you don’t yet have words for it. By gently listening, we allow space for those feelings and their meaning to become clearer.
From here, we can begin to understand the patterns you have been carrying and what they have been helping you cope with. You may notice a tendency to put your needs aside, seek reassurance or stay constantly busy. Together, we explore what lies beneath these responses with curiosity and compassion.
Sometimes this involves connecting with a younger part of you that felt vulnerable, rejected, unseen or unsafe. We explore what that part needed then and what it needs from you now. You may also recognise how, as life became busy, you lost touch with your own needs and feelings. Our work creates space to begin showing up for yourself again.
This is what I mean by returning to yourself: learning to listen to your body, recognise your needs and respond to the vulnerable parts of you with care.
Alongside this, we explore the thoughts and beliefs that keep familiar patterns in place. As you recognise your triggers and how your nervous system responds, we practise ways to help you feel more settled and give you greater choice in how you respond.
Over time, this work can help you offer yourself comfort and reassurance, express your needs, build healthier boundaries and trust yourself more. It is time set aside to prioritise your wellbeing and build a more compassionate, connected relationship with yourself.
