It's so interesting that I got to read this just after writing the previous post.

" Gestalt therapy sees the person being thrown into the world who is free to choose from among all possibilities at any given moment.
People construct who they are through their choices.
Gestalt stresses the importance of exploring the nature of existence, what it means to be a single individual, and the truth of subjectivity.
People who lack truthfulness about the self in the world may experience anxiety and dread. To be authentic, a person must be responsible for self."
