ESTABLISH CONTACT
IN GESTALT THERAPY
WHAT TO EXPECT
This presentation covers the five contact layers to peeling the onion
in gestalt therapy, a sample session will be performed.
Phobic- Avoidance (of pain), hide real self, act out fears, feel vulnerable and helpless. Denying.
Impasse- Appear stuck and unable to meet counseling goals. No sense of direction.
Implosive- Become aware of ways they limit themselves. Experiment with change of unfinished
business and move toward integration of fragmented parts. Vulnerable.
