Requirements
Upon registration, a registration fee of € 300 is charged, which will be deducted from the total tuition fee.
According to regulations, up until recently, one could become a Gestalt Therapist even if their previous degree was not humanities related. One could complete the 4 years of Gestalt Training at the NSG followed by a short additional course (PSBK), and become fully accredited. In this case, additional hours of supervision, learning therapy and NVAGT points through Gestalt workshops were needed, but it was a possible path. As an accredited Gestalt Therapist, one could be covered by insurance, for themselves as well as for their clients ( through the "aanvulende" health care insurance package).
As of 2030 this will be changing, meaning that the RBCZ, the organization related to the dutch health care system, has announced that they will only be allowing graduates that hold one of the background diplomas listed in this document.
To comply with this change and to ensure that all of our students will be able to become fully accredited therapists,
starting in September 2025, we will be requesting from all prospective NSG students to be graduates of one of the fields listed in the aforementioned document.
Please take a look at the document, and let us know if you have any questions.
A Curriculum Vitae is requested in which their education and work experiences can be found.
All information provided by the student about his or her previous education, living and working situation, personal and professional past, or otherwise, will be treated with strict confidentiality by the training institute, its staff and teachers.
