The Gestalt approach has so far played a minimal or no role in social science courses (social work, psychology) as well as in the practice of social work. This book makes the Gestalt approach accessible to a wider audience so that specialists can expand their methodological repertoire accordingly. The authors see professionalism as a continuous, lifelong process that consists of training, reflection and research in specific practical situations. With this volume, they open up a learning path for readers, conveying a didactic concept so that readers can acquire methodological skills for conducting consultations. Based on the authors' experiences dealing with the topics of depression, addiction, codependency, parenting advice, trauma/dissociation and psychosis, short video recordings, commented transcriptions and summary graphics have been created to explain the basic relationship dynamics and approaches to action. This learning material can be used by students and practitioners in the field of the social work, but it is also would interest anyone who is involved in consulting and coaching in other areas. The focus is on reenacting and reflecting on practical situations based on cases. In role plays, students or professionals put themselves in the shoes of clients and consultants. Through these case reflections, basic conversation dynamics on specific topics can be both experienced as well as understood. Approaches can be tried out in order to expand the methodological repertoire for practice. Gestalt in Social Work: Case Studies in Practice is primarily intended for students, lecturers, professors, teachers and practitioners of social work. Readers in the fields of psychology and psychotherapy (doctors, psychiatrists, psychotherapists), Gestalt therapists and trainers, and consultants in other related fields also would find the book of interest. The translation of the original German version of this book into English was done with the help of artificial intelligence. The authors (with the friendly support of a bilingual psychologist) have subsequently revised the text further in an endeavour to refine the work stylistically. 606 $aSocial service 606 $aPsychotherapy 606 $aSocial work education 606 $aHumanistic psychology 606 $aTeaching 606 $aTheory and Method in Social Work 606 $aPsychotherapy 606 $aSocial Work Education 606 $aHumanistic Psychology 606 $aDidactics and Teaching Methodology 615 0$aSocial service. 615 0$aPsychotherapy. 615 0$aSocial work education. 615 0$aHumanistic psychology. 615 0$aTeaching. 615 14$aTheory and Method in Social Work. 615 24$aPsychotherapy. 615 24$aSocial Work Education. 615 24$aHumanistic Psychology. 615 24$aDidactics and Teaching Methodology. 676 $a361.301 700 $aSchachameier$b Armin$01834568 701 $aReichert$b Ulrich$01834569 701 $aBreitenfeldt$b Tom$01834570 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911015624203321 996 $aGestalt in Social Work$94410086 997 $aUNINA
