Brilliant, easy listening and well described
Great video! Gestalt has always been one of my favorite theories. During a role-play assignment with my brother as the client, he discovered the empty chair technique was super beneficial:) I’m in my second year of a clinical mental health counseling program and your videos are quite helpful!

Point of break off with you and all connected persons.
This is not about Gestalt therapy. Ross Curtis here describes some body-oriented techniques and an example of the empty-chair or two chair techniques. These techniques are not the therapy. He does not even describe why one would use these techniques and when. The techniques ARE NOT the therapy. Gestalt therapy has a rich and complex theoretical base. Interventions and techniques need to emerge from a deeper understanding of the theory and practice.

He literally says ways to apply it, he’s not here to define for you the therapy which you clearly already know all about
A load of rubbish.
