One size does not fit all. This is why, during the first session, we will explore what brought you into therapy and identify the therapy model that will help you reach your goals. Listening to you, the client, and identifying your therapeutic goals is the key to success. Gestalt therapy is a strength-based model from a foundational systemic approach for wholeness and a sense of fulfillment.
