Forever In Progress

GGGGestalt Therapy is a constant work in
progress. The embodiment of the human experience
- its perceptions, choices and interactions -
it's continually evolving, changing and vigilantly
discarding obsolete ideologies in exchange for
more pertinent ones.

Although the word gestalt means to complete,
Gestalt Therapy won't ever be complete in a
conventional sense of the word. Embodying this
contradiction, it conveys the idea that the
forever dynamic human experience can never quite
be summed up by a rigid, abstract philosophy.
Therefore, Gestalt must be as flexible and dynamic
as the human experience it strives to define.

It tells us that our experience at this very moment
is the only thing that's complete. The tangible is
all that matters. We
ARE HERE right NOW. It stresses
that reality should supersede the abstract, therefore
giving the very reason for why Gestalt Therapy seems
so vague and unfinished. It doesn't waste time
analyzing, obsessing and interpreting because that
would take us away from the very thing it stresses
ó the moment, our surroundings, our emotions
and our bodies
