I am a British gestalt therapist based in Catalunya. I offer sessions in Barcelona, Vic and Girona, or online.
I also work with the arts & creativity. I have a special interest in coercive control, high-demand groups (aka cults), persuasion and influence, and hold a UK diploma in "Dealing with Ñarcissism".
I am not a fan of the New Age beliefs or Naranjismo that are rife in Spanish gestalt - or what Yontef termed "boom-boom-boom therapy". There will be no talk of the divine feminine/masculine, how you cause your own illness with your toxic thoughts, inner child or victim-blaming in my sessions 😅😅. I'm not dissing Spanish gestalt (or saying everyone practices like this) - I think it provides a much needed boost of creativity and humanity to the gestalt space just, you know, "un poquito de por favor!". There are a lot of accusations about culty and dangerous practices in gestalt flying around in the press at the moment - some of which are more than justified
I offer the following services in English and Spanish:
1:1 sessions of Gestalt therapy
Group sessions and workshops in “Awareness” and “Creativity” from a Gestalt perspective.
Tutoring, training and consultancy on coercive control, abuse, high demand groups, persuasion, influence and manipulation.
Tutoring in ideas from gestalt in English: from PHG to contemporary gestalt, to deepen your knowledge and therapeutic applications
English for psychologists course - a B1-2 level course for students and professionals - 1:1 and study group format
English for therapists and trainers - 1:1, small groups online or dynamic workshop format
Philosophy in English - explore the philosophical roots of gestalt therapy: existentialism, phenomenology and philosophical discourse, whilst improving your English
