Abstract

Although the literature on gestalt therapy contains several different views on group processes, none is based entirely on the central concepts of gestalt therapy. This paper proposes a theoretical model that presents the group process in gestalt therapy as a self-process, drawing on the sequence of contact and the phenomenal and social field of which self is an emerging function.
