What is Logotherapy & Existential Analysis
In short: In Logotherapy & Existential Analysis, we focus less on looking back at the past to uncover the cause of what you are struggling with. The logotherapeutic approach is much more a joint journey of discovery into what sustains and enhances your health and joy in life. From the logotherapeutic perspective, this is finding meaning.
Joy in life and work arises when we can act from internal freedom, and can function from our entire being and our deepest convictions. When we can handle blockages, gloomy thoughts, traumas, or fears and act in accordance with our feelings and thoughts, and from our most authentic values.
Each of us encounters ourselves at some point. We are confronted with life’s questions at some point, often as a result of a significant event, such as a failure, burn out, rejection, or loss, or simply out of the blue.
The question then arises: “What next?”
Which direction to choose? What coordinates still serve as orientation?
Instead of losing ourselves, we should find ourselves in our (working)life!
In Viktor Frankl’s Logotherapy & Existential Analysis, we assume that these kinds of existential questions are an inherent part of life. They question us and point to the unique meaning of our existence.
In my sessions, we tackle these questions, look the beast in the eye, and search for what is essential—where you want and can be of significance.By answering these questions, you develop your own compass, which will guide you from now on, even in difficult times. You develop a coherent life story that forms the foundation of who you want to be for yourself and others, enabling you to activate untapped strengths and better relate to the present reality you face.
Lastly
There is a beautiful core in all of us. Sometimes it is visible, sometimes a bit hidden. The goal of my work as an existential coach and logotherapist is to let this core shine in its full brightness.
