In Existential Therapy: Responses to Frequently Asked Questions, the authors address those questions most frequently asked by potential clients of existential therapy or by people beginning their training or those interested in counselling or psychotherapy.
The book is divided into 5 parts, with each focusing on responding to questions about different elements of existential theory and its practice and applications:
- Part 1: Existential Philosophy
- Part 2: Existential Method and Theory
- Part 3: Existential Skills and Practice
- Part 4: Existential Applications in Different Contexts
- Part 5: Existential Relevance to Everyday Life.
The Q-and-A format, presented in accessible language, emphasizes commonly unknown or misunderstood areas that are typically overlooked.
The book will appeal to a wide audience of potential clients and trainees, practitioners from other approaches and those outside of the profession who are curious to understand more about existential therapy.
