Gestalt Therapy : Advances in Theory and Practice Paperback / softback
Edited by Talia Bar-Yoseph Levine
Part of the Advancing Theory in Therapy series
Paperback / softback
Description
The Gestalt approach is based on the philosophy that the human being is born with the healthy ability to regulate needs and wants in relationship with the environment in which she/he lives.
Heightening of personal awareness and exploration of needs is enabled by the therapist who actively engages in supporting and assisting the therapeutic journey of the client.
Gestalt Therapy: Advances in Theory and Practice is a collaboration of some of the best thinkers in the Gestalt therapy approach.
It offers a summary of recent advances in theory and practice, and novel ideas for future development.
Each chapter focuses on a different element of the Gestalt approach and, with contributors from around the world, each offers a different perspective of its ongoing evolution in relation to politics, religion and philosophy.
Incorporating ideas about community, field theory, family and couple therapy, politics and spirituality, this book will be of interest not only to Gestalt therapists but also to non-Gestalt practitioners, counsellors, psychologists, psychiatrists and other mental health professionals.
Counselling, behavioural science and psychotherapy students will also find this a valuable contribution to their learning.
