The Appalachian Gestalt Therapy Institute, located in beautiful Asheville, North Carolina, is excited to announce the expansion of our enrichment program! We will be hosting small specialty workshops presented by those in the Gestalt field, or those who may have something new to offer that would complement Gestalt training. These workshops can be from 1/2 day, to two or three days in length, and cover many topics, as long as the presenter has a working knowledge of Gestalt methodology and can incorporate this knowledge into their workshops.
