The Hot Seat
Providing an experience of old and new Gestalt in action, this workshop will include watching a recording of Frederick Perls, the originator of Gestalt therapy, work therapeutically with a real client, Gloria, and with some college students.
I will give an introduction to each of these videos, briefly outlining the relevant theory concepts. Participants will have opportunity to comment on the recordings, which I will attempt to respond to from a Gestalt perspective, and to experience the hot seat for themselves.

During this one-day experiential workshop, designed to show Gestalt in action, I plan to demonstrate my take on current Gestalt practice with any participants who would like to experience the ‘hot seat’.
Please note: Participants have choice throughout in relation to taking part in exercises and experiments. Handouts and CPD attendance certificates are supplied. Tea, coffee, water and biscuits will be provided. Lunch is not included but there are many eating places nearby. There is disabled access to this venue.
Booking policy: I don’t require a deposit, just a commitment that you will attend. You pay in full on the day by cheque or cash. This avoids the hassle of sending payment through the post. However, if you reserve a place and then cancel within a week before the workshop I would want you to pay a cancellation fee of £20. And if you don’t attend on the day of the workshop the full amount is payable.
