BRISTOL & ONLINE
WITH SEMYON POLIAKOVSKII
INDIVIDUAL, COUPLES AND GROUP PSYCHOTHERAPY
About me and my attitude
Hello, my name is Semyon Polyakovskii. I am a qualified UKCP registered Gestalt Psychotherapist based in Bristol, UK. I help people find new ways of coping with situations in their lives, when the ways they are familiar with are not sufficient anymore.
My first encounter with psychotherapy was 12 years ago, and since then I have learned first-hand how much it can offer. Today I run my own practice and invite you to explore the new horizons within yourself and in the world around you.
I believe that only you as a client hold the key to the most appropriate solutions for situations in your life. My role in psychotherapy is to help you find it. To do this, I rely on such principles of Gestalt Psychotherapy as awareness, authenticity and relational attitude, with a significant emphasis on body processes.
Training and Background
Having completed my Diploma in Gestalt Psychotherapy in Moscow Institute of Gestalt and Psychodrama, I am always on the lookout for new ways to develop my skills and keep learning. I am lucky enough to study with and get regular supervision from some of the best psychotherapy professionals in the world, including those at the Manchester Gestalt Center, New York Gestalt Institute, London Gestalt Center and French Gestalt Institute.
I am a full clinical member of the UKCP (UK Council for Psychotherapy) and GPTI (Gestalt Psychotherapy Training Institure), which means I adhere to its ethical code.
My practice is deeply rooted in philosophical foundations of Phenomenology and Existentialism, alongside modern clinical and scientific research. I try to get deeper into those and share my thoughts and reflection on threads app and in my blog.
In addition to my psychotherapeutic practice, I am also passionate about creating
immersive experiences as both endeavors are about understanding human perception and the transformational power of meaningful experiences obtained through art and contact.
What kind of experiences?
I develop both in-person and digital experiences. One such project is an iOS app called Maginary, which has achieved 1 million downloads worldwide and earned me an Exceptional Talent Visa. This recognition has allowed me to bring my innovative approach and unique projects to the UK, where I continue to explore the intersection of technology and psychotherapy.
