This article presents the relationship of Gestalt therapy, caring, healing, and the process of health and sickness. Caring turns out to be meaningful to people as the genuine encounter happens. Considering that any healthcare professional is a caretaker, the relationship with the client helps the disclosure of meanings, existential findings and a way to cure. We understand cure as the return to heal and to the recognition of potentialities and possibilities of the human being.
