Gestalt therapeutic training with Graham Colbourn
Join us for a unique gestalt therapeutic training, which is an intensive experience of self-work in a group format. This is for those interested in deeper personal development and for those who want to develop their awareness in relation to others – especially in the context of therapeutic work.
The training is based on a Gestalt approach that focuses on attentiveness to current experience, relationship and authentic contact. Participants have the opportunity to look at their ways of being, responding and building relationships – in a safe, yet lively and engaging group space.
Moderator: Graham Colbourne
A huge asset of this event is the person of the presenter – Graham Colbourne, one of the most experienced teachers and practitioners of the Gestalt approach.
He is a long-time psychotherapist, trainer and supervisor who has worked with therapy and training groups for decades. His experience ranges from the field of psychotherapy to the development of professionals working with people.
Participating in a training led by Colbourne is a rare opportunity to learn from someone who has co-created and developed Gestalt practice over many years. His working style is distinguished by its depth, attentiveness and great sensitivity to the group process.
Who is this gestalt therapy training for?
The training is aimed at:
- Psychotherapists and those in psychotherapy training,
- People interested in personal development who already have experience working on their own,
- All those who want to deepen self-awareness in relationships and in dealing with others.
It can also be an important part of the in-house work required in the psychotherapeutic training process.
Gestalt therapeutic training – Nature of work
The training is experiential – this means that participants learn through direct experience and contact, not just theory. What is crucial is what occurs “here and now” in the relationship between participants and with the trainer.
It’s a space to:
- deepening contact with each other,
- Developing authenticity in relationships,
- Recognizing one’s own patterns of functioning,
- experimenting with new ways of being and responding.
