Effectiveness when supporting the success of others comes from being able to see the patterns of their
behavior clearly, and from having the self-knowledge and presence to use oneself as an instrument of change.
For professional practitioners — coaches, organizational consultants, clinicians, social workers, social
change agents and other advisors — we teach an optimistic approach to working with others.

The core of our approach is the Cape Cod Model, which teaches how to perceive the system formed by any couple, small group or organization, and to employ a powerful method for creating change in that system based on appreciating and articulating what they are doing well. This shift in perspective transforms stuck situations, and dramatically increases the ability of practitioners to make a difference in a short period of time. All the following programs are approved for APA continuing education credits.

Introduction to the Cape Cod Model Life Strategies: Psychopharmacology for the Working on Your Work Working with the Body in Mind Wrestling with Ethical Dilemmas Conferences: The Many Faces of Help - Annual Practitioner Conference Celebrating the Power of Writing: “I persuaded an executive coaching client to
attend GISC’s Leadership in the 21st Century program. The program ended up being one of
the most valuable experiences of her working
career. Executives live isolated lives; having
a trusting peer group that supported a depth
of awareness and learning had unprecedented
value for my client. The GISC faculty and
program coaches complemented (versus
competed with) my client relationship, and
my client was extraordinarily appreciative
for the part that I played in her ability to
truly blossom.” Marianne Roy |
"These wonderful programs would be of interest to people who want to make a real difference in the world. Who want to understand how to put in place their own change programs that make that kind of difference. The Gestalt approach fundamentally respects the individual and believes in the individual’s ability to change themselves. It is this element that makes this learning so applicable in today’s world with the challenges of ongoing change that we are all facing. The session leaders are seasoned practitioners who not only know what they are doing but also know how to help others understand it." Ron Wiens, Partner "Nothing in my professional life brings me more pleasure than teaching at the GISC. Whether I’m working with therapists, consultants, coaches or executives, I remain continually excited about facilitating a process that encourages people “see” differently, and that encourages them to bring forth as much of themselves as possible in their professional and personal lives. In addition I am regularly amazed and delighted by how much the teaching process impacts me, and supports my own growth and development." Stuart Simon, GISC Faculty Member, Therapist, Coach, Consultant in Private Practice |
