SELMA CIORNAI

In this opportunity I will present the phenomenological and existential foundations of Gestalt Art Therapy, illustrating how they can be applied in experiments suggested by Gestalt therapists, with regard to the way of processing the visual and symbolic language of our clients. I will also address its relationship with the theory of the self, and will bring examples.
