Abstract

Gestalt therapy focuses on the client’s authenticity by recognizing that humans are free and unique individuals who adopt various ideals and beliefs that make their lives meaningful. This is why client autonomy plays a very important role in Gestalt therapy. This concept continues to stir debate, and client autonomy is generally defined as self-determination and self-regulation. In this article, an attempt was made to define client’s autonomy from the hermeneutic phenomenological perspective. To achieve this goal, special attention was paid to the work of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Thomas Fuchs, Emmanuel Levinas, William James, and Paul Ricoeur.
