ROEHE, Marcelo Vial. Self knowledge and personal change in Dasein Analytic. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2022, vol.28, n.1, pp. 128-136. ISSN 1809-6867.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18065/2022v28n1.12.

Starting from Martin Heidegger's strategy to describe Dasein's way of being in Being and Time and paying special attention to the notions of Authenticity and Existentiell Modification it is argued that more than being theoretically influential to existential-phenomenological psychology and psychotherapy, Being and Time is also an example of how self knowledge and personal change happen, in addition to allowing the possibility of suffering to be thought about. Existentiell Modification is the transition from inauthenticity to authenticity whose first moment is the appearance of dread that disrupts daily tasks and encounters. Standing before 'nothing' Dasein must choose itself or return to everyday cover-ups. The one who chooses itself and becomes authentic reaches self knowledge and changes itself.

Keywords : Dasein Analytic; Authenticity; Existentiell Modification; Personal Change.
