Dear mental health colleagues, 🧠
How deep can we truly go when a client's trauma is hidden behind heavy defense mechanisms and contact disturbances? If traditional methods in your practice cannot reach a client's deepest unfinished experiences, I warmly invite you to a profound Gestalt journey in practice innovation.
Come join fellow professionals for our upcoming online Gestalt training:
🚀 Gestalt Astro Therapy | 2 to 4 December 2026 (R1,350)
Bridge time, distance, and boundary blocks to safely reach and integrate unfinished experiences deep in the subconscious (even from years ago or from the womb).
Practice Example: See how chronic somatic pain (such as a 21-year-old's abdominal pain traced back to an unfinished experience at age three) completely resolves.
🦕 Gestalt Dino Therapy | 7 to 9 December 2026 (R1,350)
Take a rapid, concrete "X-ray" of the client's inner world through projective metaphors to immediately identify masks and get to the real root of the trauma.
🕒 Time for the above two courses: Daily from 14:00 to 18:00 (each course spans 3 sessions of 4 hours). Deposit to secure your spot: R400.
💡 Immediate practice enrichment: Individual 1-to-1 shorter Gestalt therapy courses:
In addition to the longer flagship Gestalt courses, I also offer six specialized one-on-one courses that instantly enrich your clinical capacity:

Geagte kollegas in geestesgesondheid, 🧠
Hoe diep kan ons werklik gaan wanneer 'n kliënt se trauma agter swaar verdedigingsmeganismes en kontakversteurings versteek lê? As tradisionele metodes in jou praktyk nie by die kliënt se diepste onvoltooide ervarings kan uitkom nie, nooi ek jou hartlik uit na 'n diepgaande Gestalt-reis in praktykvernuwing.

Voorbeeld uit praktyk: Sien hoe chroniese somatiese pyn (soos 'n 21-jarige se buikpyn wat teruggevoer is na 'n onvoltooidheid op ouderdom drie) heeltemal oplos.
🦖 Gestalt Dino-terapie | 7 tot 9 Desember 2026 (R1 350)
Neem 'n vinnige, konkrete "X-straal" van die kliënt se innerlike wêreld deur projektiewe metafore om maskers onmiddellik te identifiseer en by die werklike wortel van die trauma uit te kom.
🕒 Tyd vir bogenoemde twee kursusse: Daagliks van 14:00 tot 18:00 (elke kursus strek oor 3 sessies van 4 ure). Deposito vir plekbespreking: R400.

HELPING IS YOUR PASSION.
Gestalt Colour Therapy, Dino Therapy, and Astro Therapy provide the plan, depth, adventure, and results.

When traditional "talk therapy" stagnates or when change, loss, and trauma disrupt a client's life, you as a therapist seek an approach that guaranteed gets to the core.
These three specialized Gestalt courses offer you a scientifically based, experiential, and creative structure to transform trauma into triumph — for children as well as adults.

THE THREE SPECIALIZED FLAGSHIP COURSES (1-to-1 Intensive):

1. GESTALT DINO THERAPY
The "X-ray" of your client's inner world.
What it offers: Combines the Gestalt approach with Paleontological metaphors. Keenly observes deeper wounds, somatic reactions, micro-movements, and automatic protective masks, addressing historical trauma.
Format: 12 Hours, divided into 3 sessions, 1-to-1 Intensive Training | Fee: R3,600

2. GESTALT COLOUR THERAPY
In direct contact with the language of the soul.
What it offers: Colour reaches the deepest experiences where words fall short. Reveals the client's true needs and inner resources without problem-focused thinking. Time-efficient and designed to prevent facilitator burnout.
Format: 12 Hours (3 x 4-hour sessions) 1-to-1 Intensive Training | Fee: R3,600

3. GESTALT ASTRO THERAPY
Bridging distance and time to transform trauma into triumph.
What it offers: Sometimes time does not heal. Astro Therapy helps the client reintegrate fragments of a broken personality (scattered like islands across periods of time), restore the cycle of experience, bridge resistance, and facilitate renewed hope.
Format: 12 Hours (3 x 4-hour sessions) 1-to-1 Intensive Training | Fee: R3,600

WHY MENTORSHIP ON A 1-to-1 BASIS?
Full flexibility: Sessions take place at dates and times that suit you best.
Experiential Mastery: You walk through the process yourself firsthand as client and as therapist.
Training available online or in-person: Complete conveniently Online via Zoom, or in person at the practice in Senekal.

WHAT COLLEAGUES AND THERAPISTS SAY:
"It is three of the best workshops and real valuable techniques that I ever came across. It is an untapped resource because the child and person involved find own clarification, definitions, answers and direction. This is as good as a retreat."
— Rina Steenkamp (Social Worker)
"After attending a 3-day workshop with the acquiring of techniques devised by Stephan van Heerden, I feel thankful and blessed. This knowledge is life-changing and very effective."
— Ann Teubes

— Dr. Nadine Dunn (Counselor)
"Die kursus is baie eenvoudig en prakties uiteengesit, maar die resultate is fenomenaal."
— Deon de B**r (Life Coach)

TRAUMA-RELATED GESTALT THERAPY ONLINE COURSE:
🦖 DINO THERAPY 🦕
SPECIAL SCHOOL HOLIDAY OFFER

🔍 WHAT IS GESTALT DINO-THERAPY?

Imagine if you could take a fast, concrete "X-ray" of your traumatized client's inner world in your practice...
An image that immediately exposes the true, deeper wounds and needs, offering a clear roadmap to facilitate the awareness process.

This is precisely the breakthrough that Gestalt Dino-Therapy offers.

Dino-Therapy is anchored in the Gestalt approach — where the main goal is the promotion of the client's awareness — but it also uniquely connects with Paleontology, the scientific study of prehistoric life. 🦴

Just as fossils lie trapped in the sediment of their ancient past, a traumatized individual often sits stagnated in historical sediment (trauma), trapped in automatic protection mechanisms and masks that affect their growth, identity, relationships, and self-concept.

These masks involve aspects such as:
▪️ Automatic survival patterns
▪️ An introjected self-concept
▪️ Unintegrated feelings and
▪️ Physical symptoms
through which the person unconsciously tries to cope with pain and fears.

📋 THE GESTALT DINO-THERAPY PROCESS

Gestalt Dino-Therapy is a complete therapeutic process that unfolds as follows:

✏️ 1. The spontaneous sketch as projection
Your client's spontaneous dinosaur sketch originates from the subconscious. The client's awareness and concentration are heightened to fully discover the sketch — just as a paleontologist carefully frees a fossil from the rock.

🦴 2. The development of the metaphor
From the sketch, a rich metaphor is developed around the previously-living dinosaur's way of existence. The client is guided to intensely explore this organism's environment, behavior, challenges, and survival mechanisms.

During this narrative phase, the client unconsciously unlocks valuable information directly related to their own life story, hidden trauma, and deeper needs. However, this information is not only conveyed through words — it manifests dynamically in the here-and-now of the session through the client's non-verbal language, including subtle body sensations, changes in breathing, micro-movements, unconscious sounds, and behavioral patterns.

As a trained Gestalt Dino-Therapist, you learn to finely observe these somatic and behavioral indicators and utilize them therapeutically to facilitate a much deeper, all-encompassing level of awareness that reaches beyond mere "talk therapy."

🔬 3. Clinical hypotheses
Following the projection and metaphor, the facilitator present a series of specialized clinical hypotheses to the client. These hypotheses are based on a comprehensive, researched system covering every conceivable aspect of the drawn dinosaur — from its external and internal body parts (including missing parts) to its environment, evolution, eating habits, contact methods, peculiarities, and even its mode of death.

These profound hypotheses enable the client to discover with astonishing accuracy how their own life experiences, historical trauma, introjected self-concept, and hidden protection mechanisms are reflected in the dinosaur.

🎭 4. Unmasking and awareness
Unfinished experiences lying tucked away in the subconscious come to the foreground. The client discovers the false aspects of their identity as well as the ways in which they avoid contact with their true feelings, with their fellow human beings, their Creator, their circumstances, and with life itself.

🌋 5. Mobilization and energy
Through this heightened awareness, the client develops a healthy discomfort and aversion to being stuck in historical sediment. This increases their initiative, self-regulation, ability to make contact, and capacity to reintegrate lost aspects of the self — giving them the energy to shed the mask and move purposefully toward their true identity, greater responsibility, and realistic contact.

Clients experience how their energy increases dramatically after Dino-Therapy and feel motivated to make choices they previously lacked the courage to make.

(Note: Dino-Therapy is a clinical and experiential approach. It is in no way connected to mystical powers, bodily meridians, or universal energy.)

🎨 OTHER GESTALT THERAPY PROCESSES AND SHORT COURSES

Complete these short courses online in the safe, private space of a one-on-one course at your preferred dates and times, learning the methodology while experiencing its healing impact on your personal life:

👻 1. Gestalt Friendly Monster
A Gestalt therapy process that heightens your awareness and enables you to explore how you unconsciously use childhood patterns to try to feel safe and cope with trauma. Old childhood patterns can still manifest in your adult life and block your growth and maturity.
⏱️ 2.5 hours / R1200

⚖️ 2. Gestalt Synchronization
People are left helpless when confronted by a jumble of unprocessed feelings that prevent them from living constructively and methodically. Help them quickly regain equilibrium and succeed in synchronizing thoughts, feelings, and actions to function purposefully and methodically, continuing the therapy of the consulting room at home with a simple, ongoing, practical, measurable self-help program.
⏱️ 2.5 hours / R1200

🌙 3. Gestalt Dreamwork
Learn how to approach dreams as living processes to unlock important messages from your subconscious yourself. Discover how your dreams can serve as signposts for your current life challenges. Develop skills you can immediately apply to yourself or in your counseling practice.
⏱️ 3 hours / R1300

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 4. Gestalt Family Image
A family member's disruptive personal experiences affect everyone in the family. A family member's problem is sometimes maintained through unconscious interactions among family members. When a family member functions better after successful therapy, it is sometimes difficult for the rest of the family to accommodate that member as a healthy person, resulting in unconscious attempts to restore them to a previous unhealthy status. Gestalt Family Image helps each individual family member in a creative way to gain insight into how they unconsciously maintain their own and other members' problems and how they can contribute to each other's growth.
⏱️ 2.5 hours / R1200

🖼️ 5. Gestalt Art Curator
Use any artistic creation of children and adults to quickly discover their true needs, increase their self-knowledge, integration, and responsibility. You learn to guide the client through a systematic process to explore and discover their artwork as a projection. During the course, you will also use an art creation of your own to progress through the awareness process.
⏱️ 3.5 hours / R1400

🏰 6. Gestalt Château
Many children and adults feel their personal life is a disaster and do not know where or how to begin rebuilding their well-being and personal happiness. Gestalt Château is a therapeutic and educational program that guides clients to promote contact, order, and balance between the different areas of their life and to increase self-knowledge, self-worth, self-discipline, and responsibility. Morality is addressed using metaphors and projections that bridge resistance and heighten awareness.

🦕 BEVRYDING VAN DIE MASKERS VAN TRAUMA:
GESTALT DINO-TERAPIE 🦖

Stel jou voor jy kon in jou praktyk 'n vinnige, konkrete "X-straal" van jou getraumatiseerde kliënt se innerlike wêreld neem... 'n Beeld wat die ware, dieper wonde en behoeftes onmiddellik blootlê en 'n duidelike roetekaart bied om die bewuswordingsproses te fasiliteer.

Gestalt Dino-terapie is 'n gespesialiseerde, praktiese Gestalt benadering wat herstel van bewustheid, selfkennis, integrasie en selfregulering vir beide kinders en volwassenes fasiliteer.

Die lewe en sy uitdagings het die manier om ’n mens klein en magteloos te laat voel, asof jy vasgevang is in 'n plek waar jy nie kan beweeg nie. Maar die begeerte om weer op te staan en met vryheid te leef, bly in jou.
Psigoterapie bied die veilige ruimte om daardie pad na genesing en herstel doelgerig te stap.
In my praktyk gebruik ek gespesialiseerde en holistiese Gestalt terapiemetodes wat jou help om die onderbewuste oorsake van probleme op 'n sagte, nie-konfronterende manier te ontdek en op te los.
Of jy nou 'n ouer is wat uitkoms soek vir jou kind, of self deur 'n moeilike seisoen gaan - daar is hoop. Die terapie is aanlyn beskikbaar, of in-persoon in Senekal.

Ons almal wil veilig, geliefd en gewaardeerd voel.
Ongelukkig word ons vanweë traumatiese ervarings onbewustelik vasgevang in patrone en dra ons maskers om onsself te beskerm.

Hierdie maskers of verdedigingsmeganismes is onbewustelik en word later 'n gevangenis wat ons beroof van ons gesondheid, selfbeeld, potensiaal, geluk en goeie verhoudings.
Daar is 'n oplossing - 'n Veilige, visuele proses wat jou help om sonder lang praatsessies te ontdek hoe maskers voorkom in jou lewe (in jou liggaam, optrede, gevoelens, denkpatrone).
Jy ontdek hoe die maskers deel geword het van jou lewe, hoe dit werk, hoe jy dit onbewustelik in stand hou en hoe om daarvan vry te kom.
Hierdie is slegs een voorbeeld van terapeutiese hulp wat beskikbaar is vir kinders vanaf 7 jarige ouderdom, tieners en volwassenes. Sessies kan aanlyn plaasvind, of in persoon in Senekal.

Wat sê kliënte en professionele terapeute van die terapie?

"Die oorsaak van my pyn was 'n raaisel vir 8 jaar, maar Stephan het my gehelp om die wortel van my probleem ontdek en ek is effektief genees van chroniese buikpyn!" (Kliënt)

"Op die ouderdom van agt het my seun 'n obsessie ontwikkel om homself te verwurg. Tydens terapie het ons die oorsaak ontdek, wat op die ouderdom van drie plaasgevind het, en dit reggestel." (Ouer van kliënt)

"Dit is eenvoudig verbysterend en lewens veranderend. Die terapie is goud." I. Fourie; Maatskaplike Werker.

"Die Gestalt-prosesse wat ek by Stephan geleer het, het my geleer om op kreatiewe wyse baie diep kwessies op 'n sagte manier te genees, en was vir my persoonlik baie voordelig en het aspekte van my bereik waarvan ek nog nooit bewus was nie. (Masha Bennet; Psigoterapeut; UK)

"Vir die eerste nag in sewe jaar sedert daardie afgryslike nag het my dogter in haar eie kamer geslaap, danksy 'n deurbraak met die terapie." (Moeder van 10 jarige kind.)

"Wat Stephan se metodes onderskei, is hul merkwaardige vermoë om deur die geraas te sny en lei na diepe selfkennis. Die diepte en helderheid wat hierdie terapie bring, is ongeëwenaard. Sy innoverende tegnieke lewer resultate wat beide kragtig en outentiek is, en bevorder 'n vlak van insig wat revolusionêr voel." (Terugvoer van 'n sielkundige.)

"Stephan se terapie prosesse is 'n 'game-changer' vir enigiemand wat ware transformasie wil fasiliteer of ervaar. (Terugvoer van 'n berader.)

Imagine being able to take a concrete "X-ray" of your traumatized client’s inner self within your psychotherapy practice —
an image you could hold up against the light of your consulting room to immediately expose the person's true, deeper wounds and needs, so that your intervention gets to the root of the problem and delivers transformative results.

This is precisely the breakthrough that Gestalt Dino Therapy offers.
Just as fossils lie trapped in the sediment of their ancient history, a traumatized person, due to unprocessed experiences, often gets stuck in the masks with which they try to avoid unsafe situations and pain.
Over time, patterns form in the personality — unconscious defense mechanisms to try and feel safe. These reactions are repeatedly triggered, even years later, by sensory stimuli, relational dynamics, and internal bodily and emotional sensations that echo the original trauma.
Gestalt Dino Therapy restores the person's awareness to clear up these hidden dynamics. It is a specialized Gestalt therapy approach that facilitates the restoration of awareness, self-knowledge, integration, and self-regulation for children and adults.
By facilitating awareness, you help your clients move spontaneously from their masks toward awareness, self-regulation, their true identity, wholeness, and fulfillment.
The Gestalt Dino Therapy course is available online for counsellors and therapists in a group course format, as well as on an individual one-on-one basis.

Special Offer:
Make use of the Dino Therapy Ambassador offer and receive a 45% discount on your course.

Live your profession as a Counsellor with new professional confidence, impact, and creativity with the help of colour.

What does the Gestalt Colour Therapy CPD Online course taking place from August 25 to 27 entail?
Master a structured, time-economical, and non-confrontational approach to facilitate children and adults using colour toward greater awareness, emotional intelligence, and self-regulation.

This training equips you theoretically and practically with the necessary concepts, principles, methodology, and practical skills to utilize colour as a powerful therapeutic medium.
You will discover a systematic and complete therapeutic intervention that helps the fragile individual break free from stagnation, experience spontaneously, overcome resistance, and take ownership of their situation and healing process.

The client engages with all aspects of their being that have been affected by challenges – physical, cognitive, self-esteem, emotional, and behavioral aspects, as well as symptoms, beliefs, the environment, and relationships.
Resistance is harnessed through colour as a Co-Therapist.

Clients experience the therapy as natural and non-confrontational, eliminating manipulation by both client and therapist.
Through awareness, the client discovers their true needs, authentic self, and appropriate solutions to their unique challenges.

The Gestalt Colour Therapy intervention is suitable for any type of problem or condition, as it strengthens the individual's autonomy, awareness, self-knowledge, integration, and responsibility.

Gestalt Colour Therapy is in no way related to traditional colour therapy, body meridians, or mystical powers.

Breakthrough feedback about this method is received from colleagues across a wide variety of therapeutic and helping professions.
Success stories from our course attendees include:

In schools: Children who fell behind academically or lost interest in sport and life due to problems find their balance again.

Grateful parents: Therapists help parents effectively promote their children's self-esteem, security, and happiness.

In outreach work: Trained volunteers testify that they use it successfully with, among others, prostitutes on the streets of Calcutta, convicted criminals, and victims of violence.

In psychiatric care: Colleagues in institutions and hospitals unlock new hope for fragile patients who place their trust in therapists as a last resort.

In private practice: Psychologists, social workers, counsellors, and remedial educators achieve surprising results with, among others, helplessness, stubborn emotional blocks, aggression, anxiety, eating disorders, behavioral problems, disruptive psychosomatic symptoms, and depression.
