This free online psychotherapy course explains how gestalt therapy improves the mental health of seriously ill patients. In the 1940s, Friedrich and Laura Perls developed the famous Gestalt Therapy within the school of Gestalt Psychology, which was developed in 1912 by Max Wertheimer. It draws inspiration from existential theorists such as Søren Kierkegaard, Friedrich Nietzsche, Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir. This psychotherapy course lays out the practice-based approach of gestalt therapy that appreciates individuals as more than the sum of their parts.
