    Existential Psychotherapy

    This therapeutic approach explores the unique human experience, emphasizing personal responsibility and the freedom to make choices in pursuit of living a more authentic and meaningful life.

    Drawing on existential philosophy to explore life’s core questions (e.g., Who am I? How do I face mortality? How do I live authentically? What is my purpose?), it can be beneficial for people facing existential crises or end-of-life, feeling empty, lacking direction, or searching for a deeper sense of purpose and fulfillment.
