Leveraging the core principles of the Gestalt Therapy, an approach to psychotherapy pioneered by Fritz Perls in the 1940s, Maryana helps clients garner awareness about their feelings, reactions, and thoughts in the here-and-now. Emphasizing on developing this consciousness about current feelings and reactions, Gestalt therapy equips individuals to not just navigate through their issues, but to take personal responsibility and bring positive changes in their lives. This therapeutic experience is no mere symptomatic alleviation; it underscores a journey towards a well-rounded personality, congruence, and an inner harmony by resolving inherent conflicts and unfinished issues. It instills the belief that accepting responsibility for our choices is the first step towards growth and self-support. The therapy encourages individuals to realize that their present far outweighs their past, promoting a grounded reality, creativity, and empowering them to make better life choices. It also explores relationships with others by using the therapist-client bond as a catalyst for relationship reform and healing.
