What is Existential Therapy?
Existential therapy is a form of counseling that focuses on exploring the fundamental questions of life, such as our purpose, the choices we make, and the nature of our existence. It helps individuals face the challenges of living authentically, meaningfully, and with awareness of their freedom and responsibility. This type of therapy recognizes that life can sometimes feel uncertain, overwhelming, or even isolating, and it encourages you to confront these feelings rather than avoid them.
What to Expect
In existential therapy, we explore your thoughts and feelings around topics like death, freedom, isolation, and meaning, which are seen as core aspects of the human experience. The aim is to help you become more aware of how these issues influence your daily life, relationships, and decisions, so you can live more intentionally and find deeper meaning in your experiences.
Rather than focusing on specific symptoms or treating mental health conditions in a conventional way, existential therapy is more about fostering personal growth. It encourages you to embrace your true self, make choices that align with your values, and live with more purpose, even in the face of life’s uncertainties.
