The Clinical Center
The center, and its specialized activities concerning the mental health field, represents a point of reference for the psychological well-being.

Clinical activity
The diagnosis and the treatment inside the teoric and clinical hermeneutics of the GTK Institute acquires an original specificity since the therapeutic relationship itself becomes the instrument for the diagnosis and the treatment. The connective experience which is different for every pathology, reappears in the here and now of the relationship. The relationship becomes the time and the phenomenologic place where it is possible to recreate the past through a new experience of the self.
Methods of intervention
The first consultative meeting involves the request’s analysis and the collection of the anamnesis. In particular, the application’s examination led by a professional team allows to decide who entrusts with the case and the kind of individual, couple or family intervention to realize.
The following meetings will concern the diagnosis and the decision about the therapeutic or psychotherapeutic orientation or a specialized psychiatric consult. These meetings are carried out by experts specialized in the specific discipline who were also trained in the center’s GT (psychotherapists- psychologists and/or doctors) selected among the Gestalt’s specialists in psychotherapy respectively in the cities of Ragusa, Rome and Venice.
The intervention could call for a psycho-diagnostic examination (anamnestic and psycho-diagnostic interview) and/or a psychiatric evaluation.
