About the Course

Gestalt is one of the most respected approaches in modern psychotherapy and sits at the heart of QEC. For the first time, Dr Salmon has distilled decades of clinical and teaching experience into a live, advanced training designed specifically for doctors, nurses, AHPs and other medical professionals who want to elevate the quality of every consultation.

  • Weekly live online seminars (2.5 hrs)

  • Small, intimate group (max 12) for personal support

  • Live demonstrations, case discussion and safe role play

  • Guided peer practice you can bring into clinic and on call

  • Certification upon completion

Gestalt gives clinicians a deeper capacity to hold the I-Thou space, enhancing consultations with presence, relational depth and authenticity while maintaining clear professional boundaries.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about our services? You're in the right place!

Question 1: I already practise QEC or have communication training. Why do I need this?

Gestalt is the root of QEC. This training helps you embody presence and authenticity at a level that transforms your sessions. It’s not about adding techniques, it’s about becoming the practitioner your clients feel most safe with.

Question 2: How much time will I need to commit alongside clinical work?

Expect 2.5 hours for the weekly seminar plus two peer practice sessions each month. You’ll also receive a detailed manual to support your learning between sessions.

Question 3: How is this different from my QEC certification training?

QEC shows you how to clear beliefs. Gestalt shows you how to be with the client – in authenticity, depth, and presence. Together they create profound, lasting impact.

Question 4: Is this training recognised for CPD?

Yes. On completion you receive an Advanced Gestalt Certification signed by Dr Melanie Salmon.
