EP: 22 A Gestalt Therapy Journey: Presence, Healing, and Awareness

In this episode of Soul Therapy with Chelle, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with the vibrant and wise Kate Engler to explore her personal journey with Gestalt Therapy. As someone who works as a Gestalt psychotherapist specialising in trauma and grief, particularly supporting women, I was deeply honoured to hear Kate speak so openly about her healing experience following a traumatic home invasion. We delved into how Gestalt Therapy helped her process that event by tuning into her body and exploring the powerful connection between our physical sensations and emotional truths.

Together, we explored how being present in the here and now—one of the core practices in Gestalt Therapy—can transform how we move through the world. Kate shared how those therapeutic insights continue to shape her life, from how she shows up as a mother to how she mentors others through her PR work at Meet the Press Masterclass. Her story is a beautiful example of the healing that happens when we slow down, listen to our bodies, and connect with what’s really going on beneath the surface. I’m so grateful for this heart-opening conversation and can’t wait to share the second part with you next week, where we dive even deeper into the mind-body connection through therapy.
