The UK gestalt psychotherapy CORE research project: the findings

This is the account of a three-year research project within the Gestalt therapy community in the UK. It is an example of clinically-based, mostly quantitative research carried out in a methodical and rigorous way, using voluntary effort and minimum funding. The results can be compared with national databases of similar UK studies and show that Gestalt psycho-therapists are as effective as therapists trained in other modalities working in the NHS and in primary care.
