Abstract:

Gestalt therapy has been concerned about social and political issues from its very beginning. Although Gestalt therapy theory considers the relationship between the person and their environment, that environment is often reduced in individual and group therapy to early development within clients’ family or relational one to one dynamics. Yet our personal embodied experiences are never separated from the social, political and material context. Grounded in contemporary materialistic philosophy this research study interweaves the social, the material, the professional and the personal. It describ

Abstract:

Gestalt therapy is a form of psychotherapy founded in the early 1950s as an approach to enhancing the health of its clients within a supportive therapeutic relationship by enhancing their self-awareness, choice, and spontaneity. The provision of Gestalt professional education for Gestalt therapy practitioners is closely linked with the beginnings of Gestalt therapy. It mainly occurs in private training institutes. Gestalt professional education providers are under pressure to respond to the demands of a changing cultural context such as through the provision of credentials endorsed by national

Using a procedure that borrowed from both a quantitative and a qualitative research approach to psychotherapy, this study investigated audiotaped recordings of six sessions of Gestalt therapy conducted by five distinguished therapists.

Abstract:

Interdisciplinary work is of the essence of pastoral theology, most obviously where theology and the human sciences interact. Such work carries with it a number of risks that are not always addressed or even recognised. The principal risk is that a facile attempt to forge links between disciplines may lead to serious distortions of the meanings of both. This thesis examines gestalt therapy and feminist theology as possible candidates for interdisciplinary work. By reading and interrogating the literature of both disciplines, it identifies their origins and analyses their core ideas. The thesis

Abstract:

Hearing impairment is a major impairment that disrupts one of the most important functions and needs of the human being, namely, to communicate. Due to elusive understanding of the phenomenon, hearing impairment is seen as one of the serious anomalies, next to visual impairment. Hearing loss has adverse effects on speech, language, cognitive and psychosocial development, and subsequently affects educational and vocational attainment. There is also an effect of hearing loss on behavioural and social functions, as well as general quality of life. The effects of hearing loss are different
