REMOTE VIDEO SESSIONS NOW AVAILABLE! Everyone thinks you are fine, but you go to work and no one can tell that you’re struggling inside. You feel depressed, anxious, worn down. All you want to do is sleep and shut out the world. The self-contempt, criticism, and doubt are real, and they are relentless. You want to reach out for help but feel guilty, even selfish. By putting everyone else at the top of your list, you’ve neglected and dishonored yourself. What you really want is to feel a sense of worth, like you belong, like you have something to contribute to this vast world.

Calling all people pleasers, workaholics, and overachievers! Have you ever felt like saying no or setting boundaries is akin to embarking on a journey up Mount Everest? The very idea of disappointing someone can halt you in your tracks. Your focus is like a laser beam, aimed at fulfilling the needs of others, leaving no room for your own desires. Yet, deep within, you're aware that this relentless pursuit isn't fulfilling. It's as if you're navigating through a dense fog, where the expectations of others obscure your own path. There's an undeniable yearning within you, a whisper of your own aspirations amidst the chaos.

You're not alone, I’ve been there too - I understand the overwhelm, the emotional exhaustion, + the relentless pressure to be everything to everyone, + never being able to let your guard down. It's not easy to shift gears when you've been conditioned to prioritize others over yourself.

Existential Therapists

How does existential therapy work?

Existential therapy focuses on a patient’s inner experiences. The therapist tries to help the individual comprehend and alleviate symptoms by exploring their interior life. By confronting negative disquiet and emotions, the individual will hopefully become more open to finding meaning and purpose. This therapy can be administered to individuals or groups.

Is existential therapy evidence-based?

Existential therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has determined that existential therapy can lead to significant improvement in the mental health of patients, and for some people it can be just as effective as cognitive behavioral therapy. The benefits of existential therapy are enduring, even long after treatment has ended.

How long does existential therapy last?

The goal of existential therapy is to understand a person’s internal experiences, which may sound like a lengthy process, but it does not have to be so in-depth. However, sessions are not short-term, and therapy can continue for months or up to a year. And because patients learn the theory behind existential therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.

Is existential therapy effective?

According to research, many patients find success with existential therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving feelings of isolation, feelings of purposelessness, as well as conditions such as anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can persist even after the end of existential therapy, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve developed during treatment.
