Institute Director to deliver Keynote speech at annual GANZ Conference
Our Institute Director, Margherita Spagnuolo Lobb, will deliver a Keynote speech at the 10th International Gestalt Australia and New Zealand (GANZ) Conference, to be held on 7th, 8th and 9th October 2016 at the University House in Canberra, Australia. She will be addressing the theme of Diversity, Difference and Dialogue. Conference participants will discuss the challenge of responding to difference: choosing whether to accept, reject, fight or engage with it to create something new. At the very heart of gestalt methodology is a key to engaging with difference: existential dialogue. Dialogical process supports change, potentially moving from conflict and aggression to a mutual acknowledgement of differing needs to create a new configuration.

Relational tools to diagnose the suffering of these clients, and support the “beauty” concealed in their suffering will be provided. Concepts of field, contact boundary, aesthetic relational knowledge and physiological support will be covered. The workshop will be hosted by Gestalt Therapy Sydney (www.gestalttherapysydney.com).
