Existential Therapy
Existential therapy is a philosophical approach to psychotherapy that helps individuals explore life’s fundamental questions-meaning, freedom, identity, and mortality-through deep, relational dialogue.
How This Therapy Works
Sessions focus on open, honest dialogue where clients examine their beliefs, values, and assumptions about existence. Therapists help clients reflect on their experiences, confront existential anxieties (such as fear of death or isolation), and explore how freedom and responsibility shape their lives.
Rather than using set techniques, existential therapists encourage exploration, self-expression, and creative meaning-making, guiding clients to live more authentically and purposefully.
Is It Right for Me?
Existential therapy is especially helpful for those facing major life transitions, loss, grief, trauma, or a sense of meaninglessness. It suits individuals seeking deeper self-understanding or struggling with anxiety, depression, or identity concerns. If you’re interested in exploring life’s big questions and want to find your own answers, this approach may be a good fit. You don’t have to decide alone-a therapist can help you determine if existential therapy aligns with your needs.
