Discussion
Which of the following is the aim of Gestalt therapy?
1. Enhances client's self-acceptance
2. Increase an individual's self-awareness
3. Recognition of bodily processes
Answer: D
All three are aims of Gestalt therapy, so the answer is 1, 2 and 3. It aims to increase the client's self-awareness of present feelings and needs, which in turn builds self-acceptance, and it asks the client to attend to bodily processes such as posture and breathing, which are signs of unfinished emotional business. Options that omit one of the three aims are incomplete.
Fritz Perls, who developed Gestalt therapy, stressed living in the present and taking responsibility for one's feelings and body.
