Therapy sessions

*We see individuals, families and small groups as fundamentally adaptive and having the potential for growth. Contemporary Gestalt Therapy works to bring about awareness that empowers the client to find creative solutions to personal difficulties and to effect change in family and social systems

*We view the relationship between therapist and client as a dialogue in which the client is affirmed in his or her humanity and supported in deepening awareness. We value a quality of presence on the part of the therapist that is both authentic and clinically appropriate

*We pay close attention to what emerges in the present moment in therapy and emphasize the process as well as the content of experience.

Supervision Session

Every professional Therapist, Psychologist, Counsellor, knows how important it is to have Supervision.

When we are working with the client’s emotions, our emotions can also be affected in many ways.

We can have experiences like counter-transference; we can have experiences like a rejection, and we can experience alliances. All these situations are normal responses when we encounter the other, but...

Because we are psychology professionals we must be alert to these emotions so that they will not interfere with the process of therapy, thus ‘contaminating’ the therapeutic work. And to make sure that our work will not interfere in our personal lives, causing burnout, medical illnesses, etc.

If you are looking for Art Therapy Sessions and/or Supervision sessions, contact us and make an appointment.

ART THERAPY SESSIONS

The client can decide if he/she wants experiment with Gestalt Art Therapy session (using Art in the sessions) or Gestalt therapy session by itself.

Using Art in therapy/supervision sessions offers to the client the opportunity to express him/herself in a creative way and support emotions and resolve conflicts in a natural ambiance.

The benefits of the therapy sessions

Gestalt Therapy focuses on holistic approach, attending to mind, body and spirit.

To participate in a therapy session you do not need to be [1]“officially sick“, that means, you do no need to wait for some illness before you attend to your needs and emotions.

The therapy sessions have the focus on developing fully the healthy personality. We do not focus on the blocked parts of the person but we support the strengths and potential for growth that everybody has.

ART THERAPY - A GESTALT APPROACH

Hello! Welcome to our creative therapy centre!

Here you will find everything related to Art Therapy using the Gestalt approach.

What is Art ?:

Art is genarally known as what is done by a person whose purpose is to express a message through symbols.

These symbolic tools can be music, paintings, sculptures, theater and so on.

What is Gestalt Therapy ?:

Gestalt therapy is a methodology within psychology that grew out of the research and work of the psychiatrist Dr.Fritz Perls and his wife Dr.Laura Perls.

These two professionals were coming from the psychoanalytic perspective and felt that this method was not enough to work with clients. Today we are clearly aware that no one single method can resolve the issues that involve a range of human suffering and growth.

Gestalt is a German word roughly meaning "Shape" or "configuration".

This concept is understood, in gneral terms, that all individual experiences are shaped by a figure and a background. As time goes on, and our needs change, the figure can become the background and vice versa. So in the client's experience, the figure is changing at all times from becoming a background and as the needs arise, the figure emerges seeking completion.

When we block or prevent this process, we become unaware and suffer. That is a part of the theoretical foundations of Gestalt therapy.

Gestalt therapy, therefore, is a "philosophy", a way of being in the world in the "here and now" and taking "response-aibility" without pushing the river. Thus life is a flow ..

What is GESTALT Art Therapy?

It is the sum of the two previous concepts, Gestal therapy and the use of tools we learn to use in art therapy.

Using the artistic tools and adding the gestalt language between client and psychotherapist we work jointly to decode the messages hidden in the intrinsic symbols representing the client's situation. The Psychotherapist accompanies the client in the process of "discovering" what is helpful and not analysing or interpreting, but suggesting and asking the client what it is he or she knows are the answers and supports client's need to discover the ncessary solutions.

WE ARE SURE THAT YOU WILL BE ATTRACTED by this new way of working with emotions, whether or not you are a professional psychologist or therapist, since many of the exercises can be used personally for your own growth.

Our work is done in Australia & Spain and other countries. We have given workshops and participated in conferences throughout the world. We are located in our offices at the Gestalt Art Therapy Centre in Brisbane -Australia.

BE HAPPY HERE AND NOW..... AND BE CREATIVE !
