The handling of aggression in therapy from a Gestalt perspective

This qualitative study aimed to explore how to handle aggression in therapy from
a Gestalt perspective. In order to reach the aim of this study a conceptual
framework was done exploring terms central to this project including aggression
and Gestalt Play therapy. Unstructured, telephonic interviews were then
conducted with seven Gestalt Play therapists working with children in the
Western Cape exploring ways to handle and treat aggression in therapy. The
data collected during these interviews were then analyzed and several themes
were identified and explored by conducting a literature control. Guidelines were
then formulated and written on how to handle aggression in therapy from a
Gestalt perspective as part of the concluding chapter of this research report. / Social Work / M. Diac (Play Therapy)
