  • NGV Radio S1E5 - Christmas episode, with our guest Santa!

    Christmas Edition!! 

    Santa is joining us in tonight's NGV radio episode, to discuss euh... well, what did we discuss? .. we had some real wishes from real children and we hoped to converse with Santa on a deeper level about how and why he serves those cute little children since all these years, but to be honest, it wasn't that easy to have a real conversation with Santa after all. You can listen for yourself.

    Luckily we had some footage from Inge Van Droogenbroeck, a Belgian gestalt colleague who worked as a nurse in a care home during the first lockdown and who is working now, during the second lockdown, as a counsellor in a care home, supporting the elders, the staff and the management. Stunning to hear her testimony and the message she wants to share with you.

    Enjoy !

  • NGV Radio S1E4 - Addressing Race with a Descendant of the Mangrove 9

    In our fourth episode we are trying to have a conversation about race, with Nnandi Lecointe, a black UK-based trainee gestalt therapist. Nnandi talks about the legacy of being the daughter of one of the Mangrove 9, as  featured in the recently released BBC/Amazon Prime film.

    Trying to make sense of our male whiteness and our own racism, proved to be hard and sticky on a radio show. So much we could say about it here and so little that wouldn't be food for projections. So better you have a listen and find out yourself. 

    Safe to say the three of us continued the process after the show, feeling the burden of this big topic we're trying to bring on this small show. 

    We were blessed to have some music played to us, a live performance of Bach’s Sarabande in C minor by Chris O’Malley. What a welcome counter balance to the tension when addressing race. 

    Listen for yourself and enjoy!

  • NGV Radio S1E3 - A Leader Supported by Gestalt

    Welcome to our first episode where we're actually hosting for real!

    Our guest of the evening is Leonie McCarthy, CEO of Peterborough Council for Voluntary Services and gestalt trainee.  She's opening up about her development as a leader, supported and challenged by her gestalt training. 

    Other stuff you'll hear on this episode is music from Thomas Fairclough, a Scottish gestalt therapist who performs a song about the therapy room! 

    And we close the evening with the engaging and touching Chicken Diaries by Toni Clarkson.

    Enjoy !

  • NGV Radio S1E2 - Recovering and Reflecting

    After a disastrous 1st episode on 24th of September 2020, where Murphy was on the controls, torpedoing all tech we had set up, making us loose half of our guests and all our nerves, we decided to cut ourselves some slack in the 2nd episode. 


    You'll hear us, John and Thomas, talk about this experience of trying to bring a radio show to the gestalt world and beyond, and you'll hear the story of how this all started in 2018.. or was it 2019? 

    Enjoy
