Existential therapy
Existential therapy is a philosophical approach to therapy
that deals with the human condition. It is concerned with exploring
life’s
questions, such as the search for meaning, and it does not concern itself
with
interpreting people’s actions or putting them into categories. It also encourages clients to face up to certain concerns of existence, such as death, anxiety, and meaninglessness.
Existential phenomenological therapy focuses on the client’s
subjective experience, and aims to set aside biases and prejudices about things, and suspend our assumptions. It is about focusing on human existence as it
is
actually lived.
