In this episode of The Gestalt Get-Together, Corinne Zmoos, MS, CCC-SLP, welcomes Courtney Katzenberg, LGPC, M.Ed., for a thoughtful conversation about Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), the Three Systems of Regulation, and how these frameworks can meaningfully support parents of neurodivergent children.

Together, Courtney and Corinne explore the shared foundation of regulation that connects CFT for caregivers and Gestalt Language Processing (GLP)-informed approaches for children. You will gain a clear understanding of how CFT can serve as a supportive resource for parents experiencing grief, chronic stress, burnout, confusion, dysregulation, or feelings of defeat, while also strengthening the co-regulation systems that benefit the entire family.

This episode offers practical insight into how SLPs can better understand caregiver experiences, collaborate with mental health professionals, and thoughtfully integrate regulation-centered perspectives into family-centered care.

About the Guest: Courtney Katzenberg, LGPC, M.Ed, is a psychotherapist at Be. Psychotherapy in Baltimore, Maryland. She joined the practice in 2021 after a career transition from education, seeking a clinical internship that would allow her to use evidence-based, compassionate, and mindfulness-focused modalities with the perinatal population. In 2024, she pursued training with the Compassionate Mind Foundation to build her knowledge and skills employing Compassion Focused Therapy, which she uses with individuals and couples.
