There is not one treatment method that will work for every individual struggling with addiction. Gestalt Therapy recognizes this, and treats the individual as a whole person instead of focusing on specific events or factors. With this therapy modality, the client becomes more self-aware and recognizes the thoughts that have influenced their negative behaviors.
Gestalt Therapy focuses on the present moment and puts them more in touch with their current feelings. It centers on treating multiple factors at one time, addressing each at the same time. In turn, the person improves their personal health and well-being by overcoming the challenges that contribute to addiction.
