Resolving ‘unfinished business’ is often an essential part of counseling. If left unresolved, it can contribute to depression, anxiety, and mental ill-health while damaging existing and future relationships (Nelson-Jones, 2014). The ‘Empty Chair Technique’ is a practice derived from Gestalt therapy designed to confront and resolve a client’s current conflicts. It enhances self-awareness by encouraging them to explore previously avoided experiences (Trijayanti, Nurihsan, & Hafina, 2019; Smith & Quirk, 2017).
