Get Solid Life Coach Training - Your Personalized Training Program Begins when YOU Step Up

Our career entry level program was established back in 1975 to teach the Gestalt Therapy approach to mental health professionals. Gestalt is based on the belief that a person most completely learns by being part of a personal experiential process. Our Gestalt Life Coach trainees learn Gestalt “from the inside out.” We offer a very effective Gestalt Life Coach training program consisting of workshops, lectures, book discussions, individual counseling experiences, weekly group participation and Staff interaction.

At graduation time, you'll be ready to present your thesis paper, multi-media presentation, or pre-approved special project demonstrating your understanding of Gestalt and its application. You'll be ready to embark on building a satisfying career as a Gestalt Life Coach, or to utilize these skills in your own profession.

This course is personalized to your interests and style of life coaching, so you can complete the approximate 200 hours of participation and training. We invite you to attend in person, but if necessary online by web-conference as your schedule permits. Our workshops and theory classes are presented by our staff members. Sometimes fellow graduates and veteran faculty members from other institutes appear as guest mentors. This insightful program is open to everyone. College degrees or prior knowledge of Gestalt are helpful but not required to attend, although Gestalt Life Coach candidates are pre-screened for compatibility.

The general public may attend most of our workshops during the year without participation in our Certified Gestalt Life Coach training program. However, if you choose to apply for enrollment, please do so by contacting our office. Join us to change your life and the lives of others by becoming a certified Gestalt Life Coach!

NOTE: Our Training Program is on hold during the COVID-19 epidemic. Please contact us if you are interested and we will notify you once we can restart our program .
