Spirituality as Part of the Whole: Gestalt Therapy’s View of Spirituality

Abstract

In contrast to the positivist perspective, which disregards the individual’s spiritual beliefs and needs, many contemporary psychological counseling approaches view spirituality as an essential part of the individual. Rather than ignoring these religious and spiritual dimensions, psychological counseling approaches now include them as part of the integrity of the individual and therapeutic processes. Gestalt therapy, whose development was pioneered by figures like Fritz Perls, Laura Perls, and Paul Goodman, aims to help clients achieve wholeness by gaining awareness of the here and now. Influenced by psychoanalysis, Gestalt psychology, existential philosophy, phenomenology, field theory, psychodrama, Eastern religions, and spirituality, Gestalt therapy evaluates the client as a whole on the premise that the whole is not the sum of its parts, but rather the fine coordination of all of them. This study assesses Gestalt therapy’s perspective on spirituality, the relationship between the basic concepts of Gestalt therapy and spirituality, and the application of spirituality in Gestalt therapy within this holistic framework.

Bütünün Bir Parçası Olarak Maneviyat: Gestalt Terapinin Maneviyata Bakışı

Abstract

Bireyin manevi inançları ve ihtiyaçlarını göz ardı eden pozitivist anlayışın aksine günümüzde psikolojik danışma yaklaşımlarının önemli bir bölümü, maneviyatı bireyin önemli bir parçası olarak değerlendirmektedir. Psikolojik danışma yaklaşımları, bireyin dini ve manevi boyutlarını görmezden gelmek yerine artık bunları bireyin bütünselliğinin bir parçası olarak kabul etmekte ve terapötik süreçlere dahil etmektedir. Gelişmesinde Fritz Perls, Laura Perls ve Paul Goodman gibi isimlerin öncülük yaptığı Gestalt terapi, danışanların şimdi ve buradaya dair farkındalık kazanarak bütünlüğe ulaşmasını amaçlayan bir yaklaşımdır. Psikanaliz, Gestalt psikolojisi, varoluşçu felsefe, fenomenoloji, alan kuramı, psikodrama, Doğu dinleri ve maneviyattan etkilenen Gestalt terapi, bütünün parçaların bir toplamı değil; tüm bu farklı parçaların ince bir koordinasyonu olduğu görüşünü esas alarak danışanı bir bütün olarak değerlendirmektedir. İnsanı bir bütün olarak anlamanın onun tüm yönlerinin kabul edilmesiyle gerçekleşebileceği fikrini vurgulayan bu yaklaşımda, insanın önemli bir yönü olduğu düşüncesiyle maneviyat ele alınacak konulardan biri olarak görülmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, sözü edilen bu bütünsellik çerçevesi içerisinde Gestalt terapinin maneviyata bakış açısını, Gestalt terapinin temel kavramlarının maneviyatla ilişkisini ve maneviyatın Gestalt terapide uygulama sürecini değerlendirmektir.
