Text in Afrikaans with summaries in Afrikaans and English / Mishandeling is een van die mees traumatiese ervarings wat die adolessent kan beleef en beïnvloed sy totale ontwikkeling. Die doel met hierdie navorsing was om deur intervensie te bepaal of mishandeling enige implikasies het vir die adolessent se verhouding met God. Die pastorale en Gestaltterapie is aangewend om die adolessent wat mishandel is in sy verhouding met God te begelei. In die pastorale Gestaltterapiebenadering is daar rekening gehou met die dinamiese konteks van lewenservaring en betekenisvelde in die Godsbeeld van die adolessent. Hierdeur is die impak bepaal van die adolessent se ervaring, waarneming en verwagting van God. Die uitgangspunt van die pastorale Gestaltterapie was dat die adolessent se verhouding met God disfunksioneel geword het as gevolg van mishandeling. Met behulp van die intervensienavorsingsmodel is tot die gevolgtrekking gekom dat die pastorale Gestaltterapeutiese benadering die verwronge Godsbeeld van die adolessent verander het sodat die verhouding met God kan herstel. SUMMARY Abuse is one of the most traumatic experiences the adolescent can have and influences his total development. This research was aimed at establishing, by means of intervention, whether abuse has any implications for the adolescent's relationship with God. The pastoral and Gestalt therapy was applied to guide the abused adolescent in his relationship with God. In the pastoral Gestalt therapy approach the dynamic context of life experience and areas of meaning in the adolescent's image of God was taken into account. Thereby the impact of the adolescent's experience, observation and expectations of God was established. The starting-point of the pastoral Gestalt therapy was that the adolescent's relationship with God became dysfunctional as a result of abuse. With the aid of the intervention research model, it was concluded that the pastoral Gestalt therapeutic approach has changed the distorted God-image of the adolescent to restore the relationship with God. / Social work / M.Diac.

Text in Afrikaans with summaries in Afrikaans and English / A pastoral Gestalt therapeutic intervention model was developed, implemented and evaluated in the research to facilitate the therapeutic process from guilt and shame to forgiveness. Guilt and shame can be traumatic self-conscious experiences which has an impact on abused late adolescent's physical, psychological, social, emotional, moral and religious development. It can determine the adolescent's behavior, their views of themselves and their interpersonal relationships. Guilt and shame arouses feelings of helplessness, anger, blame, bitterness and the need for retaliation, while forgiveness can relieve these impulses effectively and be utilized as a source for a recovering experience. In designing the intervention model, the researcher studied adolescents' emotional experience, behaviour and management of guilt, shame and forgiveness from a pastoral base theory within the Gestalt therapeutic perspective. The formation of the paradigm is based on a multidisciplinary approach which takes place on the interface between pastoral counselling and Gestalt therapy without the unique content and character of pastoral care or the Gestalt therapy being lost. By utilizing the intervention model abused late adolescents are assisted with the necessary awareness to focus on what is on their foreground in order to reach self-regulation of their emotional experience. The intervention model was developed as a prototype intervention based on Enright's forgiveness process model and components of both the pastoral base theory and the Gestalt therapeutic process of the Schoeman working model. The research was performed by using a mixed qualitative-quantitative approach. The qualitative approach entails the use of applied intervention in intervention research while the quantitative approach consists of measuring the respondents' experiences of guilt, shame and forgiveness, using three standardized rating scales before and after intervention. The researcher applied the intervention research design in a multiple case study with five respondents and a single-system design was incorporated into the intervention research. The measurement of respondents' experiences of guilt, shame and forgiveness after intervention, determined whether the changes took effect, attributable to their participation in the intervention. Following the research findings the conclusion was made that the pastoral Gestalt therapeutic intervention model can be used effectively to guide abused late adolescents who experience guilt and shame, to forgiveness. / In die navorsing is 'n pastorale Gestaltterapeutiese intervensiemodel ontwikkel, geimplementeer en geevalueer om die terapeutiese proses van skuld en skaamte na vergifnis te fasiliteer. Skuld en skaamte kan traumatiese selfbewuste ervaringe wees wat mishandelde laat-adolessente se fisieke, psigiese, sosiale, emosionele, morele en religieuse ontwikkeling beinvloed.
