Gestalt Therapy Practice : Theory and Experiential Learning Hardback
by Gro Skottun, Ashild Kruger
Part of the The Gestalt Therapy Book Series series
Hardback
Description
This essential new book gives the reader an introduction to the fundamental concepts of gestalt therapy in a stimulating and accessible style.
It supports the study and practice of gestalt therapy for clinicians of all backgrounds, reflecting a practice-based pedagogy that emphasises experiential learning. The content in this book builds on the curriculum taught at the Norwegian Gestalt Institute University College (NGI).
The material is divided into four main sections. In the first section, the theoretical basis for gestalt therapy is presented with references to gestalt psychology, field theory, phenomenology, and existential philosophy.
In the later parts, central theoretical terms and practical models are discussed, such as the paradoxical theory of change, creative adjustment, self, contact, contact forms, awareness, polarities, and process models.
Clinical examples illustrate the therapy form's emphasis on the relational meeting between therapist and client. Detailed description of gestalt therapy theory from the time of the gestalt psychologists to today, with abundant examples from clinical practice, distinguishes this book from other texts.
It will be of great value to therapists, coaches, and students of gestalt therapy.
