Dianna Scibetta Counsellor

Gestalt counselling and psychotherapy in Peterborough, UK

About me

I am a fully qualified BACP registered Gestalt Counsellor and I offer a safe space in which we can explore whatever feels most important to you.

In addition to my Gestalt Counselling Diploma, I hold a Post Graduate Certificate in Gestalt Therapy Theory Studies. I am also continuing advanced training in Gestalt Psychotherapy, to complete my MA in Gestalt Therapy Theory Studies.

I have completed Bereavement Training with Cruse Bereavement Support.

I work with individuals who are 18 and over. Some of the areas I have experience working with include:

  • Anxiety

  • Depression

  • Trauma

  • Panic attacks

  • Obsessional thinking and behaviours

  • Anger

  • Identity

  • Self esteem

  • Relationship concerns

  • Life changes

  • Bereavement

  • Loss


My role as a Gestalt Counsellor is to raise awareness.
I imagine this space as a garden full of flowers, where some are budding, others blooming, while those that have bloomed, allow the space for new growth.

What is Gestalt therapy?

Gestalt therapy is a relational, dynamic and creative therapy. It connects, among other influences, aspects of Existential and Eastern philosophies, and Psychodynamic and Field theory.

Gestalt therapy supports the creation of the new through the meeting of one person with another in the here and now. It attends to the whole person's being in the present moment.

The aim of the therapeutic work is to resolve psychological difficulties. This can develop awareness, increasing choice and autonomy, bringing greater capacity for satisfaction in life. This process can be an empowering time of discovery.

The relationship that develops between the therapist and the client is central to the therapeutic process, as this can support understanding and facilitate the changes you would like to make.

"We would not say that the shoreline belongs to the land or the sea. It is brought into being by their meeting."

Latner, J 1985
