Gestalt therapy, the psychotherapy of relationship and bond, arose in the 1950s. It draws upon various practices (psychoanalysis, existentialism, phenomenology,…) and helps the patient strengthen their ties with others, and focus on the organization of his/her interaction with his/her environment. It also take into consideration the patient’s thoughts, emotions and sensations.
Gestalt therapy (Stéphanie Aebischer Hamida) provides:
- The key to understanding why certain behavior continue to repeat themselves
- A understanding of and the integration of certain difficulties in order to adapt to a changing environment
Gestalt therapy (suitable for adult and children) is useful for:
- Personal fulfilment
- Relationship problems (conflicts, disagreements, domestic violence, attitudes of intolerance)
- Dealing with grief, divorce and separation
- Burnout
- Treating anxiety and psychosomatic disorders
Sessions last 60 minutes. An extra10/15 minutes of case study is completed in absence of the patient.
