Summary:This paper intends to contemplate the theme of psychologist neutrality in clinician practice, discussing its feasibility and necessity. Its objective is to reflect about psychologist's action as a therapist and as human being in the psycotherapic practice. If the neutrality seams to be too distant and unattainable, on the other hand, a psychologist that talks about his or her life, using the therapy setting with his or her own problems, feelings and opinions would be inopportune as well. Gestalt-therapy uses phenomenology as human seeing and as a method, taking its concepts to clinician practice. This way, it establishes some concepts, founded on phenomenology, humanism and existentialism that give a direction to the psychologist’s practice.
