Gestalt group therapy offers participants a novel opportunity to engage in a transformative relational process. Within a carefully nurtured setting, each individual is offered the potential of embarking on a journey of self-discovery. This often entails candidly sharing, authentically expressing, and thoughtfully investigating facets of oneself that might remain unexplored. 

By delving into your unique manifestations within the group dynamic you can begin to comprehend your impact on others, and how others impact you. As the facilitator during the therapeutic encounter, I seek to balance engagement through collaborative challenge while remaining supportive: noticing and being present to each individual as they strengthen greater self-awareness and work with whatever arises within the group in each moment. 

Q). Do I need to commit to the group sessions?

A). Yes, commitment is required for group cohesion. I ask that you attend two final sessions when you are ready to leave. This ensures that we all end as well as possible, and it respects the group dynamic.

Q). Can I turn up to a one-off group to get a feel for what it is like?

A). Generally, the group 'opens' and 'closes' depending on individual needs and group consensus. This is not a support group or a peer group. You will be participating on an interpersonal level, interacting with other members to build trust and understanding of yourself and others.

It can be ideal to try personal (individual or couples) therapy so that you can begin to understand how gestalt therapy works. This will help you to assimilate into the group dynamic. I invite you to reach out if this feels appropriate for you.

Q). Do I need to 'qualify' to be a group member?

A). Yes, it is advantageous to the group's development that participants are suitable. Just because one group isn't right for you doesn't mean that another one won't be. Sometimes the timing may not align, and additional personal therapy may be a pre-requisite. All this requires is a brief chat about your circumstances and needs.

Q). Do I need to be a gestalt client or familiar with gestalt therapy?

A). No, yet, it is preferable because the process will be easier to navigate. However, this can be achieved within the group with responsibility and patience. 

Q). How do I make payment and can I get a refund?

A). Once you have confirmed your interest you will be invoiced. 

There is an expectation that group members commit to this period, which is reflected in a financial payment upfront to secure your membership. 

Due to the nature of group therapy, you will be invoiced for the full amount whether you attend each week or not. 

Payment is required 14 days prior to the groups' commencement and refunds are not available. 

The viability of the group depends on committed participant numbers.
