An afternoon screening of new contemporary Gestalt Therapy films with Bob Resnick, one of a handful of Gestalt Therapists personally trained and certified by Fritz Perls. These films show a real therapist working with real people dealing with real issues and in real time. There are no actors and nothing has been added or cut. Under "the radar" for decades, these films come from GATLA'S long running (41st year) European Summer Residential Gestalt Therapy Training Programs For Therapists. Professionally recorded, these films are being subtitled in several languages and will soon be available for distribution.
These films are neither a characterture of an insensitive, shaming and cathartic model (an unfortunate and distorted stereotype of U.S. Gestalt Therapy in the 1960's) nor a demonstration of introjected, undifferentiated and formulaic empathy. These therapy sessions realistically demonstrate the core struggles human beings have with connecting and separating the basic human dilemma: How to be with another and maintain a self
The dialogic relationship between therapist and client is the "freshest fish" for both client and therapist to access and track this crucial process. While the relationship is sometimes figural in the work, it is always a fundamentally important part of the ground. The engagement of the two phenomenologies allows for difference which, in turn, allows for awareness and learning the stuff of therapy.
Bob will personally introduce each film as well as encourage comments, questions and comparisons both with other styles of Gestalt Therapy as well as other psychotherapeutic models after each film.
It is Bob's hope to have these tapes used for demonstrations and training in Gestalt Therapy training organizations and even more importantly, to provide graduate students in university programs worldwide as well as professionals in post graduate training, a look at contemporary Gestalt Therapy.
