The Space Between Healing is a tender, poetic exploration of one woman's journey through trauma, therapy, and the quiet rebuilding of a life. Told through soft, reflective poems, the book traces a gradual transformation-from surviving on instinct to living with intention, compassion, and self-understanding.The collection is structured as a progression through the stages of healing. It begins with the earliest, most fragile moments: learning to sit with pain, finding safety in another person, and trusting the quiet presence of a therapist who offers space instead of judgement. As safety grows, the narrator turns inward, facing her younger self with gentleness and unlearning the harshness she once believed was truth.From there, the book moves into deeper terrain: grief, old wounds, forgiveness, and the long process of releasing what once felt impossible to let go. Each poem honours a different aspect of healing-self-worth, boundaries, breath, memory-carrying the reader through the emotional landscape with steady, nurturing language.Ultimately, the journey shifts toward hope. Not sudden or dramatic, but a soft return-first a small light, then gratitude, then the possibility of choosing a life shaped by softness, not fear. The final sections explore how the lessons of therapy continue long after the room grows quiet. The therapist's guidance becomes an inner voice, and healing becomes a way of living, not a destination.This is a book about becoming-slowly, gently, courageously.It reminds readers that healing is not the absence of pain, but the presence of understanding, self-compassion, and the willingness to continue forward.
