Gestalt Therapy in Times of War

New Clinical Tools and Political Consciousness

This volume does not deny the terrible emotions of war, but seeks to move through them, finding new clinical tools that psychotherapists can use to help patients in their turmoil, and support therapists in their caregiving role.

How do social and political conflicts of our time “contaminate” psychotherapy practice?

Rather than investigating the reasons for war, this book offers testimonies from psychotherapists working on the front lines or from those who are deeply aware that we live in times of war. Is it possible to remain clear-headed and neutral in the therapeutic role, to navigate such traumatic emotions without fleeing or being overwhelmed? This volume does not deny the terrible emotions of war but seeks to move through them, finding new clinical tools that psychotherapists can use to help patients in their turmoil and support therapists in their caregiving role.

This book will be invaluable to Gestalt psychotherapists, psychotherapy trainers, and all therapists who are looking for new tools for working with patients from multicultural and critical contexts, especially in relation to polarized social stances, wars, and other traumatizing conflicts.
