Overview
The main force behind the development of Gestalt Therapy was Fritz Perls, who changed the dynamic of the client-therapist relationship, moving ownership of treatment from the therapist to the client. This approach encourages personal responsibility for conditions, whilst providing the tools required to empower the mind. Clients are encouraged to move the mindset away from past experiences, and the emotions they conjure, into the here and now, making self-regulating adjustments as needed. It treats the mind, body and spirit as one, rather than individual entities, to provide a complete holistic treatment.
