mental health settings since 1979. He has worked as an approved
psychiatric social worker in London and has considerable experience
of multidisciplinary teams and working with disturbed people. He is

Metanoia Institute, London and a visiting tutor on the Integrative

years and is an active member of the Gestalt community. Phil’s
particular interest continues to be in mental health. He currently
specializes in trauma treatment and is an accredited EMDR
Supervisor and Consultant. His other abiding interest is in the
transpersonal dimensions of human experience and he finds that
Gestalt brings a new and enlivening perspective to both these areas
of interest.

Gestalt therapy is often misrepresented and misunderstood, so I was
delighted to read this clear and well-written book. This is an
all-inclusive, whistle-stop tour of how to practice contemporary
Gestalt. The book guides the reader step by step through the
practice, starting with assessment and moving on to creating
working alliance, managing risk, undertaking research and many
other topics. It is written in simple language, with exercises to
engage the reader, alongside examples and case studies. I recommend
this as a valuable resource for anyone who wants to learn more
about contemporary Gestalt theory and practice.
