This review is from: Gestalt Therapy: Practice and Theory (Paperback)

I'm a gestalt therapist, and I first read this book as a graduate student learning gestalt therapy (when I was even younger than I am now ;-) I still refer to it, and re-read it from time to time and always learn something that didn't stand out to me last time. Give this a try if you're looking to learn about Gestalt (it's a GREAT introduction), or to deepen your knowledge of the Gestalt theory and practice from someone who 'gets it'. Pat Korb (the author) is, I believe, a true 'master therapist' if there is such a thing!
