What are the applications of logotherapy?
Logotherapy and Existential Analysis (LTEA) is a school of psychotherapy that emphasizes the freedom and responsibility of human beings. This modality can be applied in cases of physical and mental illness, addictions, relationship breakdowns, financial difficulties, and life transitions. Through its principles and methods, LTEA helps to gain perspective, evaluate options, and decide which values to live to find meaning. The principles and methods of LTEA can be used alone, or combined with other treatment approaches.
LTEA is particularly effective in addressing the existential aspects of diverse situations and for helping people find meaning and purpose in their lives. It is suitable for addressing a wide range of concerns, including the following:
- Acute or chronic physical, or mental illness
- Moral injury, burnout, grief, loss, and trauma
- Symptoms of depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Life transitions and adjustment issues
- Societal, community, couple, marital, and family conflicts
- Life-limiting conditions
