A bit about me

My name is Are Sørenstuen, I am 50 years old and I work as a senior advisor at a consulting company where I provide advisory services in management and technology. I have extensive experience as a project manager, change manager, personnel manager, etc. Outside of work, I engage in powerlifting and music.

A little over three years ago, I started studying Gestalt therapy at the Norwegian Gestalt Institute (https://gestalt.no/). So far, the study has given me valuable insights into interpersonal relationships, myself, and how to help those who wish to come to me for therapy.

A bit about the therapy I offer

As a graduating student in Gestalt therapy, I can accept clients as a student therapist. The therapy involves us sitting down and discussing what you wish to bring up with me, and together we talk about the phenomena that arise between us during the conversation.

 

Gestalt therapy is a branch of psychotherapy that takes a holistic approach to the person as a body, thoughts, feelings, and sensory impressions. A Gestalt therapist has a strong focus on the individual’s experiences in the moment (here and now).

 

Who can come for talk therapy?

Gestalt therapy is suitable for everyone, but since I am still a student and gaining experience, I offer individual therapy to adults, young adults, and adolescents.

 

There are many different reasons to come to therapy. Some of them are:

  • Need to sort thoughts and feelings
  • Desire for change, or feeling stuck
  • Low self-esteem and insecurity
  • Challenges in a relationship
  • A challenging relationship with a friend or colleague
  • Desire to get to know yourself better, your own needs and boundaries
  • Anxiety, anger, grief, or depression
  • Need someone to talk to
