Introduction to Gestalt Therapy Workshop - December 2026
Please join us for this one-day, in-person workshop, An Introduction to Gestalt Therapy.
Gestalt therapy is a humanistic, existential and process-oriented therapeutic approach. Gestalt therapy lays out a clear path toward more authentic and holistic functioning through differentiated contact with oneself and the world. This results in greater capacity for connection with both self and others. The gestalt approach is non-pathologizing and based on the assumption that humans innately move toward growth and regulation within all levels of their environment.
All providers interested in a didactic, interactive, and experiential introduction to contemporary gestalt therapy are invited. Explore how a gestalt approach teaches you to identify and use your own unique internal reactions in the immediate moment to enhance the effectiveness of your personal therapeutic and interpersonal style. In this one-day intensive workshop, you will explore core gestalt concepts through theory discussions, live demonstration, supportive supervision, and hands-on practice of gestalt therapy-based skills.

Somatic Ethics in Counseling: From Fear to Good Judgement Workshop - February 2027
This live, experiential workshop examines ethics as a relational, embodied, and context-sensitive practice.

Map their personal somatic threat response and name two or more self-regulation strategies to restore judgment under stress.
Apply a seven-step ethical decision-making model (e.g. Forester-Miller & Davis, ACA) to two challenging cases (dual relationships; technology/AI) and document their reasoning.
Draft a Personal Statement of Relational Ethics including internal and external supports (self-care, consultation, supervisory structure).
Develop a consultation & documentation plan that adheres to NBCC‐style standards (clear objectives, reasoning steps, evaluation) for professional practice

Seattle Ongoing Gestalt Therapy Training Program - New Training Begins in Early 2027
