Ivana Denić is a Master Psychologist and Gestalt therapist under supervision. She is here to explore the space for personal development with her clients. The most important experience for her during her education was personal development and getting out of her comfort zone, which was not always pleasant. She believes that coming to psychotherapy requires a certain amount of courage, and if her clients are already here, she believes that they have taken the first step. The next step would be to support them to listen to themselves non-judgmentally and understand their needs. The basic methods she uses in Gestalt psychotherapy are experiences that happen in the "here and now," work on expanding awareness, and the dialogic method. Her first experience as a psychologist was counseling work with cabin crew and pilots of one of the world's largest aviation companies in Dubai. She provided psychological first aid and counseling to staff when some traumatic situations occurred on flights. This experience taught her that it's okay to have support when one needs it and that it's easier when someone is there for them, with all that life is, both good and bad. After all, humans are only beings whose souls yearn for authentic contact and acceptance.
