More and more clients are showing up to do deep work.
…therapy that goes beyond just talking about problems, work stress, or the crisis of the week.
Clients need therapists who can help them get to the root of their struggles.
That’s where Gestalt-trained therapists stand apart.
Gestalt is a present-focused, experiential, and relational approach that helps clients integrate the parts of themselves that feel disconnected or fragmented. By attending to the “here and now,” Gestalt therapy brings awareness to the body, emotions, and thoughts as they emerge in the session, creating opportunities for profound healing.
Whether it’s resolving inner conflicts, doing inner child work, repairing attachment wounds, implicit memories, meeting unmet needs, or expressing suppressed emotions, Gestalt therapy gives you a way to enter their client’s inner world WITH them – not just being a passive listener in the room.
Join Dr. Stephanie Goldsmith, a Certified Gestalt Therapist and Certified Complex Trauma Professional, to learn the core Gestalt techniques and skills through in-session demonstrations, experiential exercises and engaging lecture. Walk away knowing how to…
Plus, she’ll show you a framework for integrating Gestalt Therapy with IFS Therapy and parts work.
