My name is Kristina Tonić, and I am a psychologist and Gestalt therapist. I hold a national certification from the Association of Psychotherapy Societies of Serbia (SDPS) as well as a European certification from the European Association for Gestalt Therapy (EAGT).
I started my private practice in 2021, and since 2023, I have also been working as an associate at the gestalt therapy center where I completed my training. Within the center, I’ve held the positions of a trainer, professional associate, and individual therapist. Currently, I am responsible for translating psychotherapy literature from English to Serbian.
I do individual Gestalt therapy sessions for adults (people over the age of 18) and I often encounter themes such as:
- self-confidence and self-esteem,
- difficulties in setting and maintaining boundaries,
- emotional regulation issues (impulsivity, anger, shame, guilt, etc.),
- communication problems,
- relationship issues (with family, partners, friends, colleagues, etc.),
- various forms of anxiety and depression,
- burnout syndrome,
- stress,
- life crises,
- different types of trauma.
Gestalt therapy is a suitable choice for individuals facing significant life challenges impacting daily functioning, as well as for those seeking support or simply wishing to enhance their relationships and overall quality of life through personal growth.
The belief that drives me is that each of us has the capacity to live fully and face life’s challenges in a creative way. As a therapist, I work with clients to recognize and develop these capacities together. Through the therapeutic relationship, we learn, grow, heal, and face life in all its colors. This opportunity of being together with understanding, support, and respect is what I cherish most and what motivates me deeply as a therapist.
To me, psychotherapy is an adventure, where the journey itself often holds greater significance than the destination we envision. And, as we reach one destination, we often realize it is just the starting point for the next journey.
I am available for therapy in both Serbian and English.
