The Whole Picture

Gestalt therapy is a type of psychotherapy that is based on the idea that we are naturally holistic and complete. This theory views people as dynamic and interconnected with their environment. Gestalt focuses on helping individuals become aware of their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors in the present moment. This awareness can lead to increased self-understanding, insight, and change.

Gestalt therapy emphasizes the importance of the here and now, and encourages clients to practice self-acceptance and self-awareness. It also encourages clients to explore their relationships with others and the environment in order to gain insight into their behavior and thought patterns. Additionally, Gestalt therapy encourages clients to experiment and take risks in order to break patterns of behavior and develop new ways of relating to the world.

Plus, it can be pretty fun to talk to an empty chair!
