The Street, Between Oikos and Polis: The Political Dimension of Caring
Chiara Sovegni’s experience as a Gestalt therapist working with adolescents and people who use drugs on the street from Venice to the Bronx. Her observation is of the street as a therapeutic setting and the therapist’s body as the space of creating the here and now of a relationship that tries to overcome the trickery of institutions in order to deliver care.

We are the original Gestalt Therapy Institute, established by Fritz and Laura Perls in 1952.
As we were then, so are we now: a teaching/learning community where we explore ever-evolving Gestalt theory as experienced in and expressed through the practice of therapy, group work, and organizational development. Presentations mine the history of Gestalt theory and examine the larger intellectual context within which current theory is developing. Anyone with an interest in Gestalt ideas, applications, and practices is invited to join our community and membership organization.
Our offerings include monthly presentation meetings that are open, without charge, to anyone interested in attending and cover a range of contemporary topics. To see the full schedule, click here.
