Bircham International University offers a Master’s Degree in Gestalt Therapy via distance learning for adult students. The program provides specialized training and builds practical knowledge and specific skills in courses connected to the student’s concentration. Gestalt therapy emphasizes exploring behavior rather than directly modifying it, with aims of growth and autonomy through increased awareness, using a horizontal therapeutic relationship.
Students study through distance learning using a structure of 70% textbooks and 30% project. The program requires 36 to 54 academic credits above a Bachelor’s program. The curriculum includes 21 academic credits for Gestalt Therapy Online, plus 13 academic credits for research methodology and a final project or thesis, along with additional subjects.
Admission is open for adults over 25 years of age, with a required Bachelor’s degree or international equivalent. Fees include the program of study, textbooks, study guide, evaluation and assessment, diploma, and transcript.
