Válent Szilvia

Gestalt Therapist and Coach

I believe the answers are already within us — yet we often need support to access them and give them a voice

I provide a safe and accepting space where you are free to talk about whatever matters to you.

Our work is grounded in an honest and collaborative partnership, where I meet you as a responsible and equal participant. Together, we explore how you experience yourself and relate to the world in your own unique way.

For more than 20 years, I worked in international leadership roles across audit, compliance, process development and consulting within complex multinational environments.

Throughout these years, I experienced firsthand the challenges created by sustained pressure, high levels of responsibility and constant performance expectations — and how easily, in such environments, our sense of authenticity and our connection to what is truly meaningful and valuable to us can gradually fade into the background.

Since childhood, I have been deeply interested in psychology — in understanding what kinds of experiences bring harmony into people's lives, and what causes this inner balance to break.


Through my own self-awareness journey, I experienced more deeply for the first time the power of authenticity and genuine human connection. In 2011, I met my therapist, with whom I was able to truly experience what it feels like when someone is genuinely present beside us and supports us without roles, expectations or judgment. Through this work, I was able to reconnect with my own needs and gradually begin creating a more authentic life.
