Summary
The term existential stems from a stream of thought that holds truth because existential depends upon the existing person existing in a given situation at that time. Existential therapy is considered an approach or philosophy by which a therapist operates. It rejects the deterministic views of human nature and the premise that man is the victim of circumstances. While acknowledging some realities of the human situation, freedom to choose what to make of one circumstance is emphasized. It involves exploring options to create a meaningful life.
