ABSTRACT
If you’ve witnessed the work of a skilled, experienced Gestalt practitioner, you probably noticed a number of things about them. Perhaps you attended a Gestalt therapy or coaching workshop; maybe you were a member of a team working with a facilitator operating from a Gestalt approach; or perhaps you had personal therapy with a Gestalt therapist. You may not be able to put your finger on exactly what struck you, but there was something different about their way of working and being. They seemed to connect with what was happening and had a keen sense of what was needed in the moment. And then, from all the possible interventions available, there was something just right about what they did or said – and the timing of it.
