Let's talk

Gestalt therapy in Bergen, Norway and online - A warm, relational space for life's transitions, questions, and everything in between.

You don’t have to figure everything out right now. Maybe you’re going through a life transition, feeling stuck, or questioning what comes next. Perhaps you’re navigating changes in your relationships, identity, work, or sense of direction — or simply trying to make sense of where you are in life.

In therapy, you don’t need to have all the answers. You don’t even need to know exactly what you want to talk about. We can begin where you are, with whatever feels important to you right now and not have to carry it all alone.

Hi, I’m Marja — a psychotherapist from the Philippines who has built a life and found a home in Norway. I have a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Davao, Philippines, followed by four years of training in Gestalt Psychotherapy at Norsk Gestaltinstitutt in Oslo.

I offer Gestalt therapy in Bergen and online, creating a warm and relational space where you can explore what you’re experiencing — without judgment and without needing to have all the answers. Short waiting time. No doctor’s referral needed. Sessions available in English, Norwegian, and Tagalog. Free 20-minute introductory conversation.

Your therapist, Marja

How I work

I use gestalt psychotherapy, a holistic approach to personal growth. Gestalt therapy is a client-centered approach that focuses on self-awareness, personal responsibility, and living in the present moment.

Through dialogue, experiential exercises, and mindfulness techniques, clients gain insight into their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

By exploring unfinished business and patterns in relationships, gestalt therapy helps individuals integrate different aspects of themselves, leading to greater self-acceptance and emotional well-being.

This empowering approach fosters growth by encouraging authenticity, awareness, and meaningful connections in daily life.
