Psychothérapie Intégrative: Formations et ateliers

VP Jardín Metropolitano,AV. De la Reina Victoria, 12
28003 Madrid salon Hispania

In this training seminar, Dr. Richard Erskine will present the theory and
methods of developmentally based, relationship-centered Gestalt therapy. He
will conduct live therapy with group members to demonstrate various concepts
and then engage the group in a discussion of the theories and methods used.
We will explore traditional and relational perspectives of Gestalt Therapy.

Gestalt therapy has recently been enriched by integrating relational and
developmental perspectives. Some concepts that may be explored in this
seminar include: attunement to affect and developmental pacing; relational
needs; relational support versus self-support; contact and contact
interruptions; inquiry and involvement; acknowledgement , validation, and
normalization; empathy and interpersonal contact; psychotherapy of
introjection; and, when to use or not to use the empty chair or two-chair
methods. Dr. Erskine will empathize the concept of “presence”, the
manifestation of an I-Though relationship. Erskine will present an
integrative and contemporary perspective on Gestalt Therapy.
