Existential Psychotherapy (book)

"Existential Psychotherapy," by Irvin Yalom, explores how confronting fundamental human concerns—such as death, freedom, isolation, and meaning—can lead to personal growth. It emphasizes that individuals have the capacity to create purpose in their lives despite life's inherent uncertainties and limitations. The therapy focuses on helping clients accept these existential realities, fostering authentic self-awareness and responsible decision-making. By facing these core issues directly, people can find greater meaning, reduce anxiety, and lead more fulfilling lives. The approach blends philosophical insight with practical therapeutic techniques to assist clients in embracing their human condition.
