ABSTRACT
Gestalt therapy offers a present-focused, relational approach, central to which is the fundamental belief that the client knows the best way of adjusting to their situation. This new edition of Gestalt Therapy: 100 Key Points and Techniques provides a concise, accessible guide to this flexible and far-reaching approach. Substantially updated throughout, topics discussed include:
- The theoretical assumptions underpinning gestalt therapy.
- Gestalt assessment and process diagnosis.
- Field theory, phenomenology and dialogue.
- Ethics and values.
- Evaluation and research.
As such this book will be essential reading for gestalt trainees, as well as all counsellors and psychotherapists wanting to learn more about the gestalt approach.
