Book description
Gestalt Therapy has been developing steadily for the last 50 years in
America as well as in Europe. It is currently practiced in different
settings: individual, group, and family therapies; personal growth;
social, medical and business organizations. This book describes a
specific French approach: a synthesis of French culture (greatly
influenced by psychoanalysis) along with a mobilizing and interactive
method, emphasizing the cycle of contact, evoking the emotions, the body
and the right hemisphere of the brain. This book is written mostly for
beginners and for psychotherapy clients: it summarizes the central
philosophy of this approach and the main techniques for the enrichment
of contact. It includes sketches, charts, indexes, a glossary and a
bibliography, which together comprise of a convenient tool.
