TRANSCRIPT
Hello this is dr. Gandhi welcome to my
video on the theory of existential
therapy the term existential therapy
actually, refers to a group of several
therapies however generally under this
theory counselors focus on human
experiences as opposed to behavioral
rules or dividing the mind into
different areas as we see in
psychoanalytic and analytic therapy so
we’ll start with the theory of
personality and in existential therapy
an important part of the theory of
personality is the idea that there is an
inner struggle between the concepts of
freedom and responsibility and that
individuals move toward resolving the
struggle there’s also a search for
meaning and purpose in life as well as a
search to identify and establish values
individuals are thought of as self-aware
and the self-awareness plays a part in
human development the formation of
identity is a key component of
development as is building productive
and meaningful relationships in
existential therapy people work to self
actualize to become fully authentic to
become a fully authentic person in the
world and generally how a person relates
to the world is a key area of emphasis
when looking at existential therapy
under this theory there are several
fears that clients will have at
different points in their lives
including the fear of isolation
meaninglessness the fear of death
the fear of lacking any meaningful
relationships the fear of having and
experiencing guilt and also the fear of
feeling empty the fear of emptiness so
as you can see from this theory of
personality existential therapy really
focuses on what it means to exist in the
world and how individuals sometimes
struggle to make sense of that existence
and to find purpose in that existence
continuing with the theory of
personality the ways of being in the
world in the theory of existential
therapy is divided into four parts and
it’s important to understand that
existential counselors believe that
individuals exist in all four of these
parts all four of these worlds
simultaneously the first world here is
the eigen welt and that’s one’s own
world
it’s an individual’s subjective inner
experience of the world next, we have the
MIT welt and the MIT welt
represents relationships that only human
beings can have then we have the ohm
welt and the ohm welt are the physical
world and the objects in the physical
world so it’s the environment around an
individual including all living beings
and last, we have the uber welt and the
uber welt represents spiritual beliefs
about the individual’s ideal world, the
next item when looking at the theory of
personality is the concept of
existential anxiety and this are
different than what existential
counselors refer to as neurotic anxiety
and I’ll talk about those differences in
a moment
existential anxiety is considered normal
it’s to be expected and it’s also
considered in many ways to be positive
because it can lead to living a full and
authentic life individuals require
courage in order to overcome existential
anxiety but when Exxon’s existential
anxiety can be accepted by an individual
therapeutic change is possible
existential anxiety can also be avoided
at least for a short time when an
individual believes there is safety and
security and life existential counselors
do not believe in safety and security
but rather they have a view of the world
where uncertainty is a major factor that
must be accepted and acknowledged moving
on to the cause of symptoms and you can
see here under causes symptoms I have
existential anxiety that’s a cause of
clients’ symptoms under this theory and
neurotic anxiety and it’s important to
understand the difference between these
two types of anxiety existential
counsellors recognize both of these
types of anxiety exist but feel they
have very different characteristics so
taking a look at existential anxiety in
this theory existential anxiety is not
pathological it’s a normal part of the
human condition it’s appropriate to
situations individuals do not typically
repress existential anxiety and it cut
it can facilitate the confrontation of
what existential counselors refer to as
existential dilemmas
neurotic anxiety on the other hand is
inappropriate based on situation its
disproportional in severity as compared
to the situation it may be caused by
repressed fears and sometimes
existential issues can cause or
contribute to the development and
maintenance of neurotic anxiety so there
is a link between existential issues and
neurotic anxiety in some cases moving on
to techniques existential counselors do
not typically use traditional techniques
rather there is an emphasis on building
a genuine and empathetic relationship
with the client and in this relationship
the subjective experience about the
counselor and the client are realized
embraced and appreciated the counselor
works throughout the course of the
therapy to understand the client
experiences existential therapy is
mostly non directive and typically does
not make direct attempts to cause change
in a client existential counselor do
use self-disclosure as a therapeutic
technique they model authentic behavior
and this is an important point to look
at the modeling of authentic behavior
because this necessitates that an
existential counselor has explored
existential issues including accepting
existential anxiety and moving toward
self-actualization so counselors in
existential therapy needs to have
heightened self-awareness particularly
around existential issues
existential counselors note other ways
of being which is a little bit directive
but it’s not considered a direct attempt
to cause change and this pointing out to
the client that there are other ways of
being available to the client is
different than suggesting other ways of
behaving feeling or thinking
interestingly existential counselors do
recognize transference and when they
experience transference they pointed out
and make it a topic of discussion
existential counselors believe in the
concept of resistance and they believe
the resistance comes about when clients
do not take responsibility when clients
are not aware of feelings when they are
not authentic and existential counselors
will often address indirectly resistance
when they experience it in a counseling
session now let’s take a look at the
goals in existential therapy and not
surprisingly one of the goals is
authenticity and specifically a high
level of authenticity consistent with
self-actualization another goal is for
the client to find purpose and meaning
in life counselors hope to increase
awareness about the choices available to
an individual and the freedom to make
those choices there is a hope that
through the counseling process a better
understanding of the client by
themselves is achieved and also a better
understanding of client values
another goal is that clients will
develop improved communication skills
which would allow more authentic genuine
and productive relationships with other
people existential counselors help
clients to take responsibility for
decisions and help them to exhibit
greater honesty with themselves in their
own lives in their own experience moving
on to my opinion regarding existential
therapy and how we can integrate
elements of this theory into our own
counseling style before getting into
these items and discussing these items
it’s important to recognize that unlike
many of the other theories that can be
traced back to one individual one
developer of the theory there are a
number of individuals that contribute to
existential therapy and there are a
number of existential therapies there
are many versions of this theory of
existential therapy all of the items I
have pointed out here as items that can
potentially be integrated into a
counseling style are found in most if
not all of the existential therapy
versions however some might emphasize
different items more than others the
first item here is the emphasis on
finding meaning and purpose in life and
I particularly like this feature this
component of existential therapy
oftentimes clients come into counseling
sessions and to some extent or another
finding meaning and purpose in life is
something that will be discussed and
existential therapy tackles this issue
in an authentic way and it tackles it
head-on it makes it a foe
because of the therapy and this is
similar to my second item the
willingness to address profound issues
so in general not just the meaning and
purpose of life but also other profound
issues existential therapy is willing to
directly discuss these issues it does
not try to avoid profound existential
issues rather it moves directly toward
them in the counseling process the third
item I have here is authenticity and
this is a component of many theories of
counseling and in those theories of
counseling oftentimes and definitely in
the case of existential therapy the
existential counsellor is expected to be
authentic by having good self-awareness
and by having directly addressed
existential issues themselves I find
this to be an important point next, we
have the therapeutic alliance the
therapeutic alliance and existential
therapy is similar to the therapeutic
alliance we see in person-centered
therapy and for that matter and many of
the theories of counseling the next item
is the focus on the present but a
willingness to explore the past and
discuss the future so some theories of
counseling focus on the present really
to the exclusion of the past and the
future
they really just try to stay in the
moment in the counseling session and not
deviate and talk about the past or what
could happen the future and that can be
useful but that can also be restrictive
so I really like the way existential
therapy is willing to stay in the
present but also willing to look at how
past experiences affect the client and
the direction the client may want to
take in the future
and concerns they may have about the
future the next item here is the
appreciation and existential counseling
that’s some anxiety what they refer to
as existential anxiety is normal and
expected existential therapy does not
pathologize existential anxiety and it
allows a counselor to work with a client
with this understanding that some
anxiety will be present and that that’s
okay and the last item I have in terms
of items I like about existential
therapy is this focus on improving
communication this isn’t necessarily a
large part of many of the existential
therapies but it is a part of many and
considering how important relationships
are for many clients improving
communication has potential positive
impact in a wide variety of areas career
family friendships all these benefit
from improving communication skills and
improving the ability to authentically
communicate in terms of some of the
criticisms I have of existential therapy
and some of the areas of and items of
this theory that I do not think are
particularly useful or at least not easy
to integrate into a counseling style are
always productive to integrate into a
counseling style I think a major
criticism is really the absence of
concrete techniques there is an emphasis
on the therapeutic alliance I mentioned
that I think that’s good
however, this theory is mostly non
directive and I believe that many times
non directive is productive and useful
but just as in person-centered therapy
being non-directive can also be
restrictive and sometimes frustrating
for the client existential therapy is
not as non-directive as person-centered
therapy but the idea of being
non-directive is still an important
theoretical construct in this theory so
to summarize the utility or my opinion
of the utility of existential therapy
this therapy is willing to take on
serious issues it has an emphasis on the
therapeutic alliance and authenticity
it’s willing to discuss what the client
wants to discuss it normalizes
experiences of anxiety and improves
communication but it does not have a
large number of well-developed
techniques and is mostly non directive I
hope you found this video on the theory
of existential therapy to be useful as
always if you have any questions or
concerns feel free to contact me I’ll be
happy to assist you

you
he came in really his main issue that he
speaks about is he just doesn’t feel
very alive in his lung and he’s been in
therapy before I think the last time was
about two years ago and he got in touch
with some anger but the sense of kind of
he he doesn’t quite get a feeling about
what he’s feeling he has a difficult
time with that and he feels constricted
he feels constricted in his life I hear
that same constriction doesn’t almost
yeah, your hand gestures are very
constricted yeah yeah that’s kind of how
he presents I think yeah that’s that’s
kind of how he presents himself
maybe if I if sort of I play him a
little bit there’s my name make good
point Joe
but we weren’t gonna always often we’d
get a call six weeks a couple months
later and what what’s happening and
they’d say there’s a crack in my
driveway so we’d have to go back and see
what I was cooking there and sure enough
fielder the cracks and if you look down
in them very often you’d see a little
green flag waving a little green flag
that represented life that had gone
through the compacted earth the salt the
hot asphalt the tremendous pressure of
the roller coming up breaking through
many years later now did some programs
up in just north of just Jasper National
Park in Alberta Canada and driving back
down the Icefields highway there’s a
place where you pass a wall of sheared
granite it’s messy massive it just gives
you such an impression of society its
Olympian strength and if you stop and
you get out there’s a deflation get a
drink of water there and take pictures
and so on and then you go look closely and
in that massive granite face a crack and
in the crack that same rule green flag
waving to buy it that’s life that’s the
life force seeking searching out a way
to get to the Sun and when a client
comes into our office and we begin to
work that client is searching – just
like that that life force that we saw in
the cracks and the asphalt are granite
all life is expressed through the life
force is a life force searching is the
life force in action
and when that client who comes into your
office begins to say I hurt too much or
I once and I can’t seem to get what I
really want I don’t feel I feel unhappy
or incomplete or frustrated that’s that
little leaf trying to find its way to
the Sun to fulfillment

TRANSCRIPT
people sometimes say how can you stand
to listen to so much unhappiness and
pain and the answer is that that isn’t
all I hear I also hear curry and joy and
and growth
so they’re both sides to them and is
there a sense that with your clients and
I should think also with yourself that
one can’t really quite get to the joy
without going through a lot of the pain
that’s that’s very true when so long as
we’re denying our experience happy or
sad the other part is being denied to so
that we laugh without the full laugh we
weep without the pull fearless it’s only
as we open, I’m making this – either/or I
don’t like what I’m hearing myself
saying because it’s a matter of a
movement in the direction of greater
fullness of a being not something you
turn a switch now I’m really authentic
oh my god and to help someone else
get more in touch with their genuine
experiences to call them themself to be
there – don’t you then do it like to a
rafter I’ll call you sophomore you
you’ve written about therapy is
basically, a long-term process you’re
you’re not a therapist who sort of
patches up things or gives people
counseling for short-term problems it
really helps people to go through the
many layers of the onion to reach deeper
in and deeper into themselves and in
that process discover a larger and
larger sense of themselves one of the
things that you describe is we get deep
deep inside the south beyond some of the
superficial resistances within some
people is just an enormous level of
loathing and self-hatred mm-hmm it’s the
sort of thing which said despite
yourself yeah you’ve described so
eloquently in one of your books is is
the kind of thing that if
not handle therapeutically may lead a
person to run amok and it happens from
time to time deed show you know the let
me back up a little bit to comment on
what you’re saying we have to create a
self a definition of Who I am
we created the condition of what the
world is different people create
different world definitions and self
definitions that’s not a surprising
today’s it was at one time because with
television and other sources helped us
see how different it would be if we were
born in in Hong Kong or in goguma ganda
or something we know there are different
world views and ways of constructing who
and what I am and what this world is but
the work of depth therapy inevitably
leads us to question the way we’ve
constructed the world and defined who we
are in other words you’re getting
beneath the level of social conditioning
exactly so yeah and as that questioning
comes it’s very much like feeling the
ground is shaking under you you’re
questioning the ground you’re standing
on and it’s a very frightening
experience and in the spiritual
traditions it’s referred to often as the
leap of faith or the dark night of the
soul in our work we think that is
existential crisis the crisis of
existence and when we come to really
question to realize how arbitrary in a
sense is the way we’ve defined our own
identities and our world then come that
period of a panic sometimes and fright
if there’s not a therapeutic container
and someone gets to that point there’s a
feeling of desperation of impotence, the
Sartre describes it in the the nausea
that nausea of finding the arbitrariness
of things now and then when feeling
helpless to change that helpless to find
something that will rescue one from
nausea people can run amuck
