Existential Philosophy

Existential Psychology is characterized by a stark explanation of psychopathology and a nearly hands-off approach to therapy. Because the theoretical framework is based in a habit of mind rather than a particular treatment form, the existential approach can integrate fairly well with most forms of psychotherapy. It allows for sensitivity to culture and religious beliefs that other schools of thought do not address, but it can be harsh.

My poems about God include some of my Christian beliefs, but they don't stop there; most of them are philosophical in nature. My existential poems are wide and varied, discussing topics ranging from frequency, time, and the enigmatic ...
