"Existential therapy is something radically different. The aims are to open the person up… to help this person become more sensitive to life, to beauty. Now that sounds a bit sentimental, I know, but it's a very serious thing we need."— Rollo May
See this legendary Existential Psychotherapy master in a dialogue on what matters most in the practice of psychotherapy.
Drawing from the influence of his forefathers–Freud, Jung, and Fromm–as well as classical mythology, philosophy and literature, Rollo May gives a passionate explanation of Existential Psychotherapy and why it is so important for the practice of psychotherapy in a world full of "gimmicks." In this personal and provocative dialogue with Kirk Schneider and colleagues, May explores his own unique therapy style, reflects on his work with clients, and gets specific on what we can take and leave from other influential psychotherapists.
From watching this video, you will:
- Learn to move your practice beyond symptom reduction to expand your client’s capacity to live, think and feel more fully.
- Gain insight into Rollo May’s therapy style and why his perspective is crucial to keeping psychotherapy vital and relevant in this age of quick fixes.
- Develop an understanding of the key concepts of existential psychotherapy and its significance in the evolution of psychotherapy.
