"Is therapy for me?"
Feeling stuck, going through a difficult period in life or just need someone to talk to?
In our work together, I draw mainly from the Gestalt therapy approach. However, I stay curious and open to other therapeutic methods, and bring them into the therapy room when it can be helpful.
What is Gestalt therapy?
Gestalt therapy focuses on:
– increasing ones awareness of ones thoughts, feelings, surroundings, impulses and reactions
– the interconnected relationship of the mind and body
– how our past is with us even in our present
– a safe space to explore and experiment with different parts of yourself
– the importance of the client and therapist relationship in personal healing and growth
My beliefs:
– you do the best you can, at all times
– you have an innate inner strength, even when it doesn’t feel that way
When we become more acquainted with ourselves, we become more aware of our impulses which allows to react in different ways than we once did.
About me
Hi, I’m Yi Xin!
I grew up in Malaysia, lived in the UK and Singapore, and moved to Norway in 2020.
Other than completing my education and training in Gestalt therapy at the Norwegian Gestalt Institute (NGI), I have a BSc in Accounting and Finance and many years of experience in customer service.
Themes I am especially familiar with:
– Moving abroad and the search for belonging
– Intercultural relationships
– Religion
– Family and societal pressures
– Self-esteem and perfectionism
– Burnout and work-life balance
When I’m not working, you might find me at my gaming PC with my cat, Valentino, snuggled up behind the screen and potted plants all around us.
PS: Valentino and I are currently working towards his certification as a therapy cat through Dyrebar Omsorg. Stay tuned!
