Fritz Perls

The video that I watched was about Gloria counseling session with Fritz Perls and Carl Roger ( Perls and Roger Counseling with Gloria, (1965).The counseling session with Gloria was very interesting to me, it showed me many different ways a counselor can handle a client. I noticed the Fritz Perls used Gestalt therapy with Gloria. She was very confrontational and defiant to him. He was very direct toward her in the session. He seem to challenge her more. Even though Gloria was defiant with him, she was aware of the things that she was doing. She is laughing, half of the time too during the session. He began to challenge her body language when he asked her why she was moving her feet. You can clearly see that Gloria remind of her childhood. As a child she would sit in the corner and be stubborn. He pushed Gloria to the limit in so many ways in this session. Gloria discovers an aspects of her personality that she kept hidden, which largely dealt with insecurity, shyness, fear of not being equal enough.…

Gestalt Introduction Gestalt translates from German to mean whole or completion. Gestalt is based on the Here and the Now.

Gestalt Therapy is less focused on interpreting and more on expressing, feeling and experiencing. The main purpose of the paper is to research the theory which most captured our…

He believes that clients have to stand on their own feet and deal with their life problems. Clients are expected to do their own feeling, interpreting, and sensing rather than allowing the therapist to give advice or answers. Perls also identified five layers of personality. The first layer is the phony layer which is the stereotypical or fake layer. The second layer is the phobic layer, this is when clients have fears that keep them from seeing their true self. The third layer is the impassive…

Perls said, “Gestalt Therapy is an equation in which awareness equals present time equals reality” (1965). This theory is based on the client learning to understand themselves and to be able to stand on their own two feet. The first thing I notice when watching this video is how much Perls paid attention to Gloria’s body language. Gloria felt intimidated by Perls and stated she was scared. Perls immediately mentioned that Gloria was smiling. In his mind, smiling and being scared do not go…

Carl Rogers and Fredrick Perls both developed useful psychotherapy techniques that have similar goals. However, the two types of therapy pursue this outcome in dissimilar ways. Carl Rogers’ client centered model focuses on the relationship with the client in the hopes that building a genuine relationship will allow the client to explore attitudes and emotions more deeply. Or, in other words, examine hidden aspects that are recalled remotely but are not being experienced by the client in the…
