What is Existential Therapy?
Existential therapy originates from existential philosophy and explores the fundamental conditions of human life: freedom, responsibility, meaning, isolation, and mortality. The therapist helps you relate authentically to these existential themes and find your own path to a meaningful life. The method is relevant for life crises, existential anxiety, loss, meaninglessness, and identity questions.

Ofte stillede spørgsmål
Is existential therapy a philosophical conversation?
It is more than philosophy — it is a therapeutic approach that uses philosophical insights to work with concrete life problems. You explore how existential themes like freedom, responsibility, and meaning manifest in your specific life.
Who can benefit from existential therapy?
People in life crises, with existential anxiety, meaninglessness, grief, identity questions, or during major life transitions. It is particularly relevant if you seek a deeper understanding of yourself rather than symptom treatment.
How long does existential therapy last?
The duration varies and can range from short-term therapy (10-20 sessions) to longer courses. It depends on the themes being explored and your personal process. There is no fixed formula.
