Gestalt Therapy

Excitement and Growth in the Human Personality
Book • 2006
Gestalt Therapy presents the theoretical foundations of Gestalt therapy, an extension of psychotherapy developed by Fritz Perls, Ralph Hefferline, and Paul Goodman.

Divided into two parts, it includes self-help exercises to heighten sensory awareness and a comprehensive theory of personality development, focusing on the contact boundary between self and environment, figure-ground dynamics, and creative adjustment.

The book critiques psychoanalysis and promotes present-centered growth through experiments that explore opposed forces, perception, and interpersonal contact.
