Gestalt therapy emphasizes awareness of the present moment and personal responsibility. It focuses on integrating fragmented parts of oneself into a cohesive whole through experiential techniques such as role-playing, empty-chair dialogue, and focusing on emotions and body sensations. This approach emphasizes the here-and-now experience, aiming to enhance self-awareness, spontaneity, and authenticity while addressing unfinished business and unresolved conflicts from the past. Gestalt therapy sees growth as occurring through increased awareness and acceptance of one’s thoughts, feelings, and behaviors within the context of their environment and relationships.
