Psychotherapy & counselling according to existential and phenomenological principles is a powerful way of psychotherapeutic work that’s been applied to many different types of emotional and mental difficulties.

 

Existential – phenomenological psychotherapy is based on ideas and views that first appeared in the philosophical works of as diverse thinkers and writers as Heraclitus, Socrates, Plato, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Sartre and Heidegger, to mention but a few.

 

The benefits from working according to this psychotherapeutic style are:

• the flexibility for both client and therapist to look at different aspects of your life’s situation - past, present (and future) - at any given time during your therapy;
• the open and straightforward language used to address the difficulty/ issue you may be experiencing;
• the provision of an inclusive therapy as we will look at all aspects of your experience(s) without any theoretical or other ideological preoccupation or prejudice;

Contrary to an often quoted misunderstanding, existential psychotherapy is not about a relentless contemplation on death and human finitude but about the opening up of possibilities in ones life where none seem to exist!

 

Today existential – phenomenological ideas and principles are successfully applied not only in psychotherapy and counselling practice but also in executive and life coaching, and in mediation and conflict resolution.
