In Human Interaction and Emotional Awareness in Gestalt Therapy H.
Peter Dreitzel explores a model of the contacting processes between
human beings and their environments and presents a phenomenological
exploration of the emotions guiding such contacts. The book makes
an important contribution to our understanding of the role of
psychotherapy in the modern world, especially in the context of
change and crisis. Dreitzel sets out a new perspective of how we
interact with each other, how we frame our encounters and
differentiate them from one another, how we give them meaning, and
how they are related to our needs and wants. This is followed by a
unique phenomenological exploration of the emotions guiding such
contacts, the first time the world of human feelings has been
explored in depth and systematically analysed in Gestalt thought.
These innovative explorations are framed first by a discussion of
the historical development of Western conventions regarding
everyday behaviour, and secondly by an examination of perspectives
on climate change. Dreitzel analyses the mental and emotional
states of potential clients as they are affected by these global
processes and the book also includes an epilogue which evaluates
how to work with climate anxiety. Dreitzel's conception of social
change, with Gestalt therapy at its core, is relevant to all
aspects of humanistic psychology. It elevates empathy, emotional
development and the prevention of suffering at all levels of
society, filling important gaps in Gestalt therapy theory and
expanding it into exciting new territory. Human Interaction and
Emotional Awareness in Gestalt Therapy also contains an insightful
foreword by Michael Vincent Miller, PhD, and will be essential
reading for Gestalt therapists, other professionals with an
interest in Gestalt approaches and readers interested in social
interaction, climate change and the role of psychotherapy in a
changing world.
