Focusing on the quality of the therapeutic alliance, Lobb and McWilliams described a phenomenological and aesthetic perspective in which we may participate in the world rather than objectifying it. Experienced through sensory perceptions, attunement, and resonances, this perspective was shown to be a proper antidote to the desensitization common in contemporary society.<\/p>\n<p>Featuring theoretical, experiential, and clinical components, the seminar also included presentations by Madeleine Fogarty (Melbourne University, Australia; author of <em>The<\/em> <em>Gestalt Therapy Fidelity Scale<\/em>), Santo Di Nuovo (Catania University, Italy), and Paolo Migone (editor of the journal <em>Psicoterapia e Scienze Umane<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>The first day\u2019s program was entitled \u201cFrom individual to relationship to the field: the position of contemporary psychotherapy.\u201d During this part of the program the concept of phenomenological and aesthetic diagnosis was introduced and compared with the classical perspective on diagnosis.\u00a0 These concepts were then applied to psychotherapeutic practice and research.<\/p>\n<p>The second day\u2019s program, \u201cDiagnosis as a way of going through the suffering; psychotherapy as a way of recognizing the beauty of the intentional movement of the client,\u201d took up the development of various personality structures. The presenters illustrated that, through her or his presence and feeling, the healer becomes the \u201cother\u201d who recognizes the story of relational intentionalities of the client.<\/p>\n<p>The seminar concluded with classical performances at the Greek Theater in Syracuse.<\/p>\n<p>The universal\u00a0themes\u00a0proposed by the 53rd cycle of Classical Plays at the Greek\u00a0Theater served as a background for this conference.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Link: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gestaltitaly.com\/nancy-mcwilliams-research\/\">https:\/\/www.gestaltitaly.com\/nancy-mcwilliams-research\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5769 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/iarpp.net\/thesite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/lobbphoto0817w.jpg\" alt=\"lobbphoto0817w\" width=\"200\" height=\"302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iarpp.net\/thesite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/lobbphoto0817w.jpg 200w, https:\/\/iarpp.net\/thesite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/lobbphoto0817w-199x300.jpg 199w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/>Margherita Spagnuolo Lobb, PhD<br \/>\n<\/strong>Istituto di Gestalt HCC Italy<br \/>\nScuola di Specializzazione in Psicoterapia<br \/>\nSiracusa, Palermo, Milano, Italy<br \/>\nEmail: &#x6d;&#x61;&#x72;&#103;&#104;er&#x69;&#x74;&#x61;&#x2e;&#115;&#112;ag&#x6e;&#x75;&#x6f;&#108;&#111;&#64;ge&#x73;&#x74;&#x61;&#108;&#116;&#46;i&#x74;<br \/>\nWebsite: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gestalt.it\">https:\/\/www.gestalt.it<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5770\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5770\" class=\"wp-image-5770 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/iarpp.net\/thesite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/mcwilliamsphoto0817w.jpg\" alt=\"mcwilliamsphoto0817w\" width=\"200\" height=\"286\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-5770\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nancy McWilliams (Rutgers University, USA)<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Margherita Spagnuolo Lobb<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"issuem_issue":[],"issuem_issue_categories":[],"issuem_issue_tags":[],"class_list":["post-5767","article","type-article","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
