ABSTRACT
This chapter presents a story about Jack who worked as a carpenter to put himself through college where he majored in psychology. Jack decided to reduce his hours doing psychotherapy and start training psychotherapists. He opened up a gestalt therapy training institute. Jack paid someone to create for him a good web site, one that would allow him to attract potential trainees from different parts of the world. He talked theory and demonstrated therapy while working with various trainees. He had illustrations and analogies, and pointed out references to seminal literature in gestalt therapy, leading with several well-placed quotes from the seminal book of gestalt therapy by Perls, Hefferline, and Goodman. The chapter also narrates Jack's encounter with a patient, a young woman who suffered from depression.
