  • Why I Don’t Ask Questions in Therapy

    by Peter Philippson ...
    Series Book 13 - Topics in Gestalt Therapy
    When I offer training workshops to people who haven’t seen me work before, one of the main things that they find surprising is how rarely I ask clients questions. In this paper, I discuss the issues that underlie my preference to avoid asking questions. I am aware that to even ask the question can seem strange. People have commented that I don’t see interested in my clients! And in fact, it turns ... Read more

  • Revisiting the Field

    by Peter Philippson ...
    Series Book 1 - Topics in Gestalt Therapy
    In this paper, I examine the meaning of ‘field’ in Gestalt Therapy, and what a field orientation means for the theory and practice of therapy. I also look at what philosophical principles can add to or take away from the clarity of the approach. ... Read more

  • Confluence and Self

    by Peter Philippson ...
    Series Book 16 - Topics in Gestalt Therapy
    It seems important to me to address the place of confluence in the outlook of Gestalt Therapy. Does it have a meaning and functionality in our being in the world, or is it always a problem to be confronted? The latter was true at one stage in earlier Gestalt culture, where confluence was seen as always bad and to be avoided (although this is clearly not what our founding theory said).I will put ...

  • A Relational Approach to the Empty Chair

    by Peter Philippson ...
    Series Book 10 - Topics in Gestalt Therapy
    The ‘empty chair’ experiment has had mixed fortunes in Gestalt Therapy. Once it was a central method, with Fritz Perls naming it as one of his essentials, along with a ‘hot seat’ and tissues. It was so prevalent that it got taken as defining the approach, and taught in that way on counselling courses.While the technique has remained meaningful for many Gestaltists, it has fallen into disfavour ...

  • People and Avatars

    by Peter Philippson ...
    Series Book 3 - Topics in Gestalt Therapy
    We are in a world that is increasingly complex. Most of us inhabit two worlds that seem very different, the immediate experiential world and a virtual cyber-world of e-mail, text, social media. Gestalt Therapy emphasises ‘contact’ and ‘awareness’, and the question arises how much we can talk about these in relation to connections in cyberspace. What are the ethics of cyberspace?One of the aspects ... Read more

  • We can be Together, but You and Me can Meet

    by Peter Philippson ...
    Series Book 4 - Topics in Gestalt Therapy
    What does it mean for us to meet? Is it a matter of us being here together in the same place, or seeing each other, or you hearing me? How much is it just a meeting of my interpretation of you, while you are meeting with your interpretation of me? Are we just in a hall of mirrors, reflection meeting reflection? And in that case, is it meaningful to talk about meeting, or contact, or love at all? ... Read more

  • The 'Active Principle' in Gestalt Therapy

    by Peter Philippson ...
    Series Book 17 - Topics in Gestalt Therapy
    This is a chapter I was asked to write for a book to be published in Ukraine on the ‘active principle’ in a number of different psychotherapies. The book is now not going to be published, so I am publishing it myself. I would like to thank Larysa Didkovska and the Ukrainian Psychotherapy University for the inspiration to write this.I really like the question: what is the ‘active principle’ in ... Read more

  • Antivax, OCD and Other Projections

    by Peter Philippson ...
    Series Book 18 - Topics in Gestalt Therapy
    My proposal is that the importance of obsessions and compulsions are that they provide an achievable quasi-response to the situation of anxiety and terror when acted out ‘as in a dream’. So frightening and alienating times inevitably bring out a combination of rageful aggression and loss of sensory and human contact with the world if we cannot find a meaningful way to address the danger in a ...

  • Post-Truth: The World Therapy Made!

    by Peter Philippson ...
    Series Book 14 - Topics in Gestalt Therapy
    My thesis in this paper is that the people of the psychotherapy world, including Gestalt therapists, bear part of the responsibility for a world where truth has become fragmented, split off from the physical world of sensory and motor experience, and there is no obvious way for people to share through difference or to question assertions made that are ‘flatly contradicted’ by physical evidence. We ... Read more
