This creative visual presentation of contemporary Gestalt therapy theory and practice can stand alone as a balanced and complete introduction. Photography and graphic images have been used to illustrate specific concepts and to give a broad, clear view of this holistic theory in its complexity. The theory is presented as a series of lenses through which the therapist can focus on different aspects of the theory and therapy. An outline, reading list, and several graphics are included in the packet. Available in DVD.
