Who am I?

My name is Vytis, I am a Gestalt therapy practitioner. I chose to study Gestalt therapy because it is a place where I could get answers to important questions and concerns, and directly help others to understand themselves. Also, I am glad that you are here and that you are wondering about therapy as well.

About Gestalt Therapy.

Gestalt therapy focuses on the process and the ability to adapt to the environment. At certain moments in our lives, the ways of adapting that have served us in the past may no longer be effective in the present life situation. Difficulties arise when we become rigid and find it difficult to accept the new. Every situation requires a different way of adapting, so in Gestalt therapy we touch what seems unmovable and work on the areas where we are stuck.

One of the main goals of Gestalt therapy is to widen the field of possibilities, to learn to adapt to different situations in life in a different way. When we understand what works for us and what doesn't work for us, what our needs are, then we can make changes in what we do and in our lives.

The "Me and You" Relationship.

In a Gestalt therapy session I am me and you are you. We have a space where we can be ourselves. We come into the therapeutic relationship as we are, bringing our own experience, and we leave the relationship also as ourselves, but perhaps a little changed, having discovered something or having felt something new. This way, we slowly learn to be in contact differently and to express ourselves differently. This is my experience with Gestalt. Now I would like to hear about you.
