Alicja Gruszka-Nowak - trainer
I provide individual psychotherapy for adults in the Gestalt movement, and also design and implement original workshop series to support embodied presence and invigorate somatic reflexivity. In an atmosphere of respect and patience for individual and collective rhythms, with care for what happens in contact.
I meet life…
…working and learning the Gestalt approach as a psychotherapist, supervisor and trainer
…practicing movement, the art of dance (contemporary dance, improvisation, dance therapy, performance, movement theater)
…sitting in the circle of life, carefully weaving a web of its connections
…meditating, creating rituals that give depth and subtle order to the fragility and fluidity of the world
