The mental health of young adults is often at risk due to stress; hence it is essential to discover effective treatment methods to this issue. It is possible that the stress-reduction benefits of gestalt therapy can be realized due to the therapy's emphasis on introspection, individual agency, and the here-and-now. This study will combine and assess empirical data to present a grounded, evidence-based knowledge of the efficacy of Gestalt therapy in treating stress in young adults. A total of 150 young adults, ages 14 to 24, participated in the study. Using the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress (DASS) Scale, we were able to get a read on how each participant was feeling. The average change in participants' sadness, anxiety, and stress levels between pretest and posttest was used to evaluate the results.
Key words: Gestalt therapy, Anxiety, Session, Therapeutic, Reduction.
