Gestalt Theoretical Psychotherapy is a strictly Gestalt psychology based method of psychotherapy , developed by the German Gestalt psychologist and psychotherapist Hans-Juergen Walter. It is related to but not identical to Fritz Perls' Gestalt therapy.

One of the most striking characteristics of Gestalt Theoretical Psychotherapy is the key role of the epistemological grounding position of Gestalt theory (critical realism) and its applicability to the fundamental, theoretical and practical problems in psychotherapy. In Gestalt Theoretical Psychotherapy this is closely bound up with the basic methodological approach (holistic, phenomenological, experimental) of Gestalt theory, its system theoretical approach, its specific psychophysical and psychological approach.
