About the Faculty

 

Lasse Övling

With a rather traumatic childhood I have early been struggling with my self-esteem and developed automatic strategies for making me important in different groups. Psychology studies became like a cry for help. My own experiences of early tendencies has made me more and more curious about life. There are always new experiences to reflect on and learn from.

 

Charlotta Fritsch

Life is energy. We are energy. Everything is energy.

I have always been fascinated by identity and energy. After I lost all my energy in an exhaustion syndrome, Gestalt philosophy has been my compass in life to find meaning, balance and my own source. I started my career as a tour guide, explored the advertising industry as an Art Director and brand manager. I graduated as a Gestalt therapist in 2008. Since then I have been working as an “energy manager”, as a therapist and organizational consultant in the private and public sector. Supporting leaders, organizations and employees in change work towards a desired culture and a fearless organization.

I often think that I have a responsibility to be part of the change I want to see. Warmth and love are prerequisites for boldness and daring to change. I look forward to being a part of this exploratory learning journey. (www.fritschocompany.se)

Eugenio Moliní

I began to understand the world only after my system of beliefs was shattered. And only when my heart was broken did I begin to understand human nature.

Applying what I learned to my professional practice – promoter, designer and facilitator of change processes – I understood that only interventions made from a place of love will have a chance of having impact when addressing the enormous challenges of climate change, mass migration, global war, …

I also understood that love alone will not make a difference if it is not channeled through technical excellence and conceptual coherence.

So this is my endeavor: to promote change in the world from a place of love, with technical excellence and conceptual coherence.

Tall order.

 

Lennart Wärmlind

From an early age, I began to realize how differently we perceive reality. Growing up in Sweden with parents from diverse backgrounds, helped me see that there are many ways to interpret the world. These complexities led me to intuitively use my body to sense and make meaning of the differences within and around me, as well as to work with collaborative processes between people. Building on this foundation, along with my Gestalt training, I now support leaders and teams from around the world in leading themselves and navigating diverse perspectives. Through this learning journey, I hope to contribute to an environment that supports both inner growth and more conscious co-creation. (www.videcio.se)

Carina Livh
Early in my professional career, I began to explore how my own presence and awareness affected my relationships, my way of relating to myself and how I operated. In the role as a management consultant, I was expected to be a specialist who acted on the belief that change is created through dividing and distributing targets, planning, and pushing individual efforts and achievements. I began to doubt. Since my Gestalt training, I have contributed to change and transformation in organizations inspired by an approach based on embracing complexity, focusing on the present moment, co-creating, and supporting the emerging energy. I strongly believe that these are traits that organizations need, to be able to handle future challenges and opportunities.

Bodil Björnberg

I am an engineer, educated to be curious and solve problems through experimenting. But I could not just solve problems with the products, I wanted to make everyone happy. I wanted to help companies make their organizations a place worthy of their brilliant people. 

I did not first understand why, but when I found Gestalt I got a better understanding of how I, as a child, got the role of making everyone happy and keeping peace between my siblings. I then found I could use my playfulness and instead of focussing on the problem, look for a way to learn and experiment.

Marcus Olsson
My introduction to Gestalt began when I had the opportunity to collaborate with an organizational consultant on a large-scale change project. I was deeply impacted by his openness and ability to create a sense of safety in the room. There was something about the way he listened, asked questions, and met us “here and now” that made me and my colleagues feel seen, understood, and inspired.
Today, I support development and collaboration in complex environments as a Gestalt practitioner. Connection is important to me, and my approach is grounded in the belief that people want to grow, contribute, and be actively involved.
