Gestalt therapy's Fundamentals
Gestalt is a humanistic and holistic approach that aims to explore all aspects of the human being. By promoting awareness of the present moment and working on the unresolved experiences of the past, it helps to develop self-confidence, to better understand one's own resources, and to overcome various emotional and behavioral disorders.

Thanks to Gestalt, the client becomes more aware of himself and their thought patterns, emotions and behaviors, promoting greater self-acceptance. By actively exploring their present and past experiences, they release emotional blockages and limiting beliefs, thereby finding greater authenticity and an increased ability to create satisfying relationships and a lifestyle that is aligned with their values.

Therapeutic alliance
In Gestalt, the therapeutic relationship between client and therapist is interactive and focused on the present. The therapist does not just listen passively, but actively engages the client in a collaborative dialogue. This relationship is characterized by a joint exploration of experiences here and now, in a climate of safety and non-judgment. The therapist acts as an empathetic guide, promoting the client's awareness and personal growth.

My approach to gestalt
My approach to Gestalt incorporates cultural and intersectional sensitivity, recognizing and respecting diversities of identity and experience. It offers a safe space where anyone can explore and affirm their authenticity, addressing the specific challenges associated with their experience. This approach encourages awareness of sociocultural and historical influences on psychological well-being, thereby promoting holistic well-being and personal growth that is aligned with the unique values and needs of each individual.
