Gestalt Therapy is...
- One of the nine major forms of psychotherapy available for practice (according to Derek Truscott in a book, Becoming an Effective Psychotherapist: Adopting a Theory of Psychotherapy That's Right for You and Your Client, published in 2009 by the American Psychological Association)
-
An existential and experiential approach to living that guides the way people exist, experience themselves, and relate to one another in the worlds in which they live; many people take training in gestalt therapy without ever intending to become gestalt therapists
- A significant influence in the world of organizational consulting and executive coaching
