Abstract:

"ABSTRACT The two fundamental elements of Gestalt theory - Gestalt's 'metapsychology' - are, first, the assertion that all human behaviour may be understood in terms of figure formation and destruction and, second, the identification of the self with those parts of the figure formation /destruction process involving contact. The Gestalt self, then, is contact. This concept of the self derives from Gestalt's existential refusal to countenance division between mind, body and world, and is, therefore, essential to Gestalt therapy's holistic and relational nature. This argument is based on an inte

Abstract:

The main purpose of this study is to establish the relationship between Gestalt-therapy and Zen-Buddhism universes, based on a conceptual analysis for contributing to Gestalt-therapy theoretical development. Gestalt model has been adopted as investigation methodology using the creation and destruction figures (gestalten). Initially it was determined Perls as the start up reference or initial figure, due to his interest in Zen-Buddhism. The analysis of his collected works and auto-biography has defined his contact with Buddhism and, as consequence, its reverberation in Gestalt-therapy creation.

Shame is a field variable, a ground condition modulating the contact shame-support polarity, when functioning optimally, allows the person to be at the edge and to venture beyond oId organisations of the field - i.e. to grow. Conversely, with severe or persistent lack of support (e.g., severe or sustained abuse, neglect, or loss}, shame becomes internalised and integrated into basic beliefs about the 'self' and the possibilities of contact with others.

The first occurs when the organism, appreciating its vulnerability, resolves to defend itself by constructing with others a familiar and foreseeable world. To understand this twist depends on understanding PHG’s take on the organism’s existential dilemma. The second twist is when the organism acts to move beyond its defensive posture and open to what is strange and different in the world. To understand this twist depends on understanding what PHG means by ‘spontaneity’. Transl

The matter of whether the Gestalt-Therapy and Person Centered Approach are phenomenological approaches is controversial in the contemporary scenario of humanistic psychology in Brazil.

This article intends to make a contribution to this discussion by establishing a dialog between the Person Centered Approach and Gestalt- Therapy with the psychological main streams as conceived by the author.

Abstract:

This study offers an epistemological discussion about the classic psychology and one of its present components, Gestalt therapy, using the trajectory of classical physics to quantum as a backdrop. There was a discussion through a review by addressing three points involving dichotomous (and still currently involved) a partial transition from classical physics to quantum physics (linearity versus nonlinearity; action and reaction versus complex; and classical mechanics versus quantum mechanics) and, illustratively, three points of discussion related to classical psychology as opposed to Gestalt

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Case formulation is a frequently used therapeutic tool that helps the therapist develop a better understanding of the client’s situation. Core concepts are strategies applied when sorting information about a client, assessing the importance of specific areas and taking appropriate actions in the therapeutic process. Although the area of case formulation has been explored in many other therapeutic approaches, there is a lack of deeper evidence on its use in the Gestalt approach. This article presents a qualitative research study that uses grounded theory for analyzing interviews with e

"Abstract: Although recent years have seen a rapid increase in the body of literature relating to both the theory and practice of Gestalt psychotherapy, there has been remarkably little written conceming the use of the model within the British National Health Service. This is where most British mental health practitioners work, and certainly an environment where Gestalt psychotherapy has much to offer to clients and the wider organisation.

"Editor’s Note: The British Gestalt Journal is proud to publish this fascinating, thought- provoking, and at times elegiac essay in which the author describes a meeting between himself and one of the outstanding British philosophers of the twentieth century, Sir Isaiah Berlin (1909-1997). Berlin discourses about Gestalt therapy at length, and the author has captured it for posterity. But is it true? Whether imaginary or historical, our view is that it deserves notice. Latner/Berlin has significant things to say on a great variety of themes, including Gestalt in the context of Romanticism, the

Abstract:

Abstract Gestalt therapy has the luxury of having been developed by individuals who were eager to assimilate and integrate the exciting information and theories circulating in psychological circles in their time. A perhaps unintended consequence has been that Gestalt therapy has evolved in parallel with many of the major contributions in the cognitive and neuropsychological revolution in experimental psychology. As a result, Gestalt theory provides an excellent framework for psychology in general and experimental psychology has been quietly providing validation for many of the basic concepts o

The data was gathered using CORE-OM. The study is an example of a practice-oriented research in Gestalt therapy because it introduces a widely used quantitative method to evaluate the clinical o

"Abstract: This article provides a brief Gestalt therapy assimilation of the processes associated with psychological testing. It speaks to phenomenology and field theory. It provides examples and advocates the Five Factor Model of assessing personality. It also suggests psychological testing as a bridge to research and a necessary tool in establishing outcome data in support of Gestalt practice. Key words: testing, personality, Five Factor Model, traits, phenomenology, field theory, Gestalt therapy, research, outcomes studies."

Abstract Definitions of Gestalt therapy are examined and the impact of numerous multiple definitions is discussed. A description and review of an appreciative interview that occurred at the Second International Conference of the Association for the Advancement of Gestalt Therapy in the spring of 1997 are presented. The results obtained through this process are presented and are discussed in terms of their defining value for Gestalt therapy. A methodological definition grounded in the appreciative interview process is presented.

"Abstract: In this paper, the four conveners of the Paris Conference (May 2017) tell us why and how a research tradition in Gestalt therapy is starting to grow: the uniqueness and relevance of Gestalt therapy merits joining the psychotherapy research field to receive legitimation and the Gestalt community has already undertaken good research projects and achieved valuable results. The Gestalt community is now mobilised and the success of the Paris Conference seems to be a turning point.
