Some feedback: Gestalt chair work:
I thought it was one of the best short learning events I have attended in the past year. I liked the way you stayed focused on the subject, framing it with the four emotions. I found the concept of two-chair work without two chairs immensely helpful. I have tried two chair work occasionally, with some success I think, but using two chairs felt awkward. I can now use the concept without that awkwardness, and online, and I believe that will make it easier for the client to get into it. I also particularly liked the advice to listen not only to what the client is saying, but also to what is missing from what they are saying. I think I do that anyway, but being reminded of its importance with that simple phrase was very helpful.
So, a really valuable event and I shall certainly use learning from it in my client work. I shall see you again at future events.
P.D. from May 2024.

"Thank you very much for the interesting ideas communicated in an easy-to-understand way with pictures and metaphors. I also liked how the techniques were demonstrated on volunteers during the session. I now feel that I have a better understanding of psychology and a new technique in my toolkit."
"A helpful opportunity to be skilfully guided & to explore with colleagues the dual nature of the 'Saboteur' - destructive/discreative nuisance, yes - but also, valuable: s/he emerged as an act of love/service/protection in the past and needs to be honoured, transformed and reintegrated in the present as a partner, in the ongoing unfolding of our personality. I can totally recommend this brief webinar."
"Stefan's an excellent speaker; well worth taking the time to book a training course or a session of counselling or supervision with him."Do let your peers know and follow via eventbrite for future updates.

Stefan, is a seasoned therapist, counselling supervisor, and international trainer with over 23 years of transformative experience. He’s not just a facilitator; he’s a mentor who has touched lives through diverse training sessions across various settings.
Stefan embarked on his journey as a Gestalt Counsellor in the late 90s, earning his BACP accreditation and supervision qualification along the way. His passion for growth led him to explore creative therapeutic methods, culminating in a profound MKP weekend experience in November 2022 at Sopley, UK.
With a wealth of knowledge in “shadow work” based on Cliff Berry’s Model, Stefan has crafted a unique and personal approach to therapy. He’s also the author of “The Penny Model,” a groundbreaking book designed for young men. Drawing from his involvement with “A Band of Brothers,” a support initiative from Sussex, this insightful guide delves into the origins of depression – not in academic jargon, but in relatable language.
At the heart of “The Penny Model” are the four essential emotions: Joy, Fear, Sadness, and Anger, with a special focus on how they relate to the often-overlooked emotion of Shame. Stefan invites you to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing, where you will learn to navigate the emotional landscape with wisdom and support.
