Gestalt therapy is a therapeutic approach with a focus on personal responsibility that helps clients focus on the present and understand what is happening in their lives right now. Gestalt therapy aims to help clients focus on their current circumstances with fresh eyes to understand their situation. It is based on the concept that we are all best understood when viewed through our own eyes in the present. If working through issues related to a past experience, for example, rather than just talking about the experience, a Gestalt therapist might have a client re-enact it to re-experience the scenario and analyze it with new tools. During the re-enactment, the therapist might guide the analysis by asking how the client feels about the situation now, in order to increase awareness and accept the consequences of one's own behavior. Think this approach might be right for you? Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s Gestalt therapy experts today.
Take a quick survey to find therapists that match your needs.
Many clients come to me having tried traditional talk therapy unsuccessfully, seeking support with relationship issues, mood and anxiety concerns, grief, chronic pain, and trauma (including trauma related to unresolved childhood issues and damaging relationships). My trauma-informed, body-centered relational approach allows you to explore how you may be clinging to traumatic memories, to confront fear and self-doubt, to integrate disowned parts of yourself, and to release what is limiting you.

My ideal client values progress, real indicators of healing day by day, collaboration, is confident about their experience and is ready for a nonjudgmental ear. I see people who have anxiety, depression, loss, trauma, confusion, relational difficulty, parents who need support with their children, couples, individuals, families and teens.

Take a quick survey to find therapists that match your needs.
I begin the process with a 30-minute virtual consult to see if I would be a good fit as your counselor. Studies suggest that the biggest indicator of success early in treatment is a great personality match between therapist and client. I will spend time getting details about your case, and you get to decide if I’m the right clinician for you.

Are you wanting a better relationship but just do not know where to begin? Sometimes when a couple just verbalize each others perspectives, hearing something new may change how they interact and move forward. Having new tools to communicate and see your relationship help tremendously.
