1st Encouter of the Mexican Gestalt Community

AAGT, Guadalajara, Mexico 18 – 21, July 2013

Getting to know Two-You: Clients frequently bring their inner conflicts to therapy and look to the therapist for help to resolve them. At the heart of most inner conflict is a problem with how a person relates to himself. This workshop introduces Two-You Work, a simplification of Gestalt Two-Chair technique, to people new to Gestalt therapy and clinicians who want to learn this effective way of helping clients resolve inner conflict and reclaim disowned parts of the self. This experiential workshop is taught through lecturettes and demonstration. Participants are given the opportunity to work in dyads on their own inner conflicts under supervision and direction of the presenter. Plenty of time for debriefing, discussion and questions is provided.
