Description
Existential Counselling & Psychotherapy in Practice by Emmy van Deurzen explores the fundamental paradoxes of human existence and how they shape our problems and experiences. This third edition presents a practical framework for working from an existential perspective, focusing on enabling individuals to come to terms with the complexities of life.
By using systematic observation, clarification, and reflection, Emmy van Deurzen offers a method for therapists to help clients rediscover their inner strengths and find meaning in their lives. This approach is based on the idea that many of our challenges arise from the inherent contradictions of human existence, rather than from personal pathology.
This book provides a concrete guide for working with clients from an existential perspective, making it a valuable resource for therapists and practitioners seeking to deepen their understanding of human experience.
