Gestalt

 

Gestalt is an existential-humanist approach in psychotherapy. It places its faith in each individual’s potential to change and take responsibility for her of his life. It stresses the importance of interconnections between various parts of each person’s life, of seeing the whole picture and of achieving closure, in the here and now, with regard to unfinished business.

 

 

Object-relations

 

Object-relations is a type of psychodynamic psychotherapy based on the belief that the main driving force of each human is to form bonds with others. It sees interpersonal relationships as crucial to the development of identity and personality. It aims at helping individuals better understand how they experience relationships within themselves, how they distort them and attempt to reproduce these distortions in real relationships.
