Summary/Abstract: The article is an attempt to describe the ontological bases of Gestalt psychotherapy, both known and unknown to authors of Gestalt.

The ontological principles underlying Gestalt are holism, monism, harmony of opposites, process, cyclicality, present time and the paradoxical theory of change.
