    Workshop description:
    We care about our clients and in that way, we love them. And, most of our clients love us. In other words: Eros is present in the therapy room.
    But what, if the attraction, if eros becomes erotic or even sensual or sexual and excitement becomes arousal? For sure, it will make us feel a lot less comfortable. It may even create confusion and turbulence.
    How can we handle such a situation: those feelings eros, passion and sexuality in a situation with a client? Should we immediately refer the client? Or should we go for supervision and ‘cure’ ourselves? Or can we work with it?
    During this workshop I will invite the participants to share and explore their own experiences, fears, taboos, values and norms around sexuality. Their own sexuality as well as sexuality as a part of the therapeutic relation.
    And of course, we will explore, how we can handle such situations in a constructive, field oriented way.
     

    Lecturer FRANS MEULMEESTER about himself:

    I am working as a Gestalt trainer, therapist, coach, supervisor and consultant for more than 35 years.
    I was a staff member of the former MultidiMens Gestalt Institute in Belgium and I was involved as a staff member to help building up gestalt institutes, like the Bulgarian Gestalt Institute in Sofia, Bulgaria, the Caucasian Institute for Gestalt therapy and Family therapy in Tbilisi, Georgia and also the Gestalt Institute Nepal in Kathmandu, Nepal and now the Gestalt institute in Yerevan, Armenia. Next to that I am a faculty member or guest trainer in many other Gestalt institutes in Europe.
    As a therapist and counsellor, I was seeing clients in my private practice, and I have worked for about 25 years in a counselling centre for clients with cancer.
    As a coach/consultant, I have mainly worked in healthcare, and especially in the care of old people with dementia.
    Working in other countries and other cultures has always been a passion. It enriches me and deepens my understanding of my own culture, assumptions and what I take for granted.
    I am a registered member of the EAGT as therapist, GPO and supervisor and as an European Certified Psychotherapist of the EAP.
