Description

Hi, my name is Gosia. My work comes from lived experience as much as from training. From an early age, I was deeply sensitive to emotional undercurrents and the unspoken dynamics between people. Growing up in Poland, nature became my first refuge. Forests, animals, and the quiet rhythms of the natural world offered a sense of safety and regulation long before I had language for what I was feeling.

I was born via C section and separated from my mother in the first weeks of life, an early rupture that I later came to understand as meaningful at a nervous system and attachment level. My childhood included moments of closeness alongside moments of emotional distance. These early experiences shaped how my body learned to adapt, relate, and seek connection.

For many years, I understood myself intellectually but still felt something essential was missing. Discovering the work of Gabor Maté and later training in Compassionate Inquiry was pivotal. Through this lens, I came to recognise how early adaptations live in the body, how trauma is held beneath awareness, and how healing unfolds through presence, curiosity, and compassionate witnessing. It was also through this process that I came to understand my own ADHD, not as a deficit, but as part of a sensitive nervous system shaped by early experience.

My personal healing journey has included somatic therapy, mindfulness and meditation practice, ancestral teachings, and psychedelic plant medicine work supported through careful integration. These experiences deepened my respect for the intelligence of the body and the importance of safety, pacing, and grounded integration rather than peak experiences alone.

Today, I work with adults exploring emotional overwhelm, sensitivity, trauma responses, ADHD traits, early attachment patterns, and midlife transitions. I have a particular understanding of how deeply ADHD, emotional overwhelm, and hormonal or life transitions can intertwine and impact our relationship with ourselves, our bodies, and the world around us. Alongside Compassionate Inquiry, I draw on nervous system aware and somatic approaches, Polyvagal theory, mindfulness and meditation, Reiki, sound therapy, and conscious movement through Pilates.

Before moving fully into this work, I spent many years in the corporate world, including at Dow Jones and The Wall Street Journal, an experience that continues to inform the way I relate to stress, burnout, sensitivity, and the complexity of modern life. I offer a calm, relational space where curiosity, safety, and honesty guide the work.
