Isolated but Not Alone: Personality Development Theories: Existential Theory/Therapy

Isolated but Not Alone

Jul 1 2022 • 15 mins

On today's episode, I'm going continue my discussion on personality development.   I have always found personality development to be interesting ever since I sat in college listening to a professor discuss whether or not there people have a soul.  In this episode, my goal is to provide a brief overview of Existential Theory/Therapy and its approach to personality development.  Existential Theory/Therapy holds that individuals are active agents who are free and responsible.  It is focused on the meaning of life as well as the anxiety that comes from the big things in life like death, isolation, relationships, and meaning.
