Essay on the key concepts and principles of Gestalt Theory Gestalt therapy was developed in the 1940’s by Fritz and Laura Perls. Fritz Perls was a German Jew born in 1892 who was originally psychodynamically trained; whilst working at the ‘Institute for Brain Damaged Soldiers’ in Frankfurt however, Perls met Dr Kurt Goldstein, who had developed the ‘organismic’ approach in therapy. This describes the individual’s innate drive towards wholeness, and had an important impact on the way in which Perls subsequently developed as a therapist, and his belief in a holistic approach to therapy. Around this time, Perls met his wife Laura who was also a Gestalt therapist. In the 1930’s they left Nazi Germany for South Africa where they continued to drift away from the more traditional theories of psychodynamic therapy, and instead started to embrace a much more holistic view of the individual based on the assumption that each person has all the resources for change and growth already within themselves.
