Gestalt Integrative Couple Therapy: A Clinical Approach (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9788284516288)

This book introduces a new clinical approach to couple therapy. Gestalt Integrative Couple Therapy. The modality is based on Dr Vibeke Visnes doctoral research into six therapists and twelve clinical case studies. In her clinical and academic work, Visnes integrates phenomenology and Gestalt principles with contemporary psychological, philosophical and neuroscientific theories. Her emphasis is on holistic, relational processes and the therapeutic situation as a whole. The book synthesizes Visnes theoretical insights and clinical expertise and presents a comprehensive and evidence-based framework for couple therapy. It offers a significant contribution to the field and outlines a solid methodological structure that can be used to support practitioners as they navigate the complex and challenging waters of couple therapy. The book comprises of three parts; Part I. The Relational Process Model, describing the therapeutic situation as a whole and an action-oriented approach to couple therapy. Part II. The Gestalt Integrative Model of Domains, which supports the therapists to find and frame interventions in the complexity of a couple therapy situation, and Part III. Working with Traumatised Couples.
