Existential Philosophy and Psychotherapy - Emmy van Deurzen

[@Sea_Slug_Magic]

Emmy is a Legend. so happy to be living in the times of her existential input into psychotherapy. brilliant!

[@AgeraPR]

All the Weekend University lectures are brilliant and this is no exception, so grateful these resources are offered for free to the public.

[@samuidesune]

Absolutely brilliant lecture - I have watched it three times over the last month and would love to study under Van Deurzen sometime in the future.

[@strummer43]

As a Philosphophy graduate, youth worker and coach, fascinating to see the points of commonality.

[@bridietulloch1520]

If you can help a client to find their passion again they will find their way. What inspires me about existential therapy is it focuses on the present and future as well as how the past influences the present. In this sense this kind of therapy is very exciting because the possibilities for the client are limitless.

[@samuidesune]

What a fantastic lecture - I could listen to her speak forever.

[@gougou1996]

Excellent lecture. Really enjoyed listening to Emmy, fantastic perspective and knowledge of philosophy and psychotherapy.

[@stevenlee9064]

A clear and sensitive mind. Her patients and students are lucky to have her.

[@carlajackson-morris3590]

Beautifully spoken, and emphasized. I respect the fact that you bring out points about the effect of psychology and psychotherapy has on humans. Psychology and other theories focus on the pathology, and can set humans up to stay complacent in their circumstances. I truly believe to have an understanding of our view of the thing that we are going through, is much better than becoming the thing. Moreover, yes positive psychology is a practice that is synonymous with what the Bible teaches us in overcoming our situations. Thank you for a very comprehensive explanation of Existentialism.

[@willamato]

What an interesting, generous presentation. Thank you.

[@Ocean_Summers]

grateful , thank you for this .

[@nawfalAbdullah]

What a perfect way to explain philosophy and psychology, thank you so much. إنسانة عظيمة

[@abcrane]

I no longer use the word genius, but rather, "holistic genius" vs "fragmented genius." This brilliant beautiful woman is a holistic genius--both an expert and an eclectic--coupled with a meaningfully integrated vision and executed mission for self and humankind.

[@vlrkst]

What an amazing scholar, humanist and woman. We should have more speakers like her. Thank you. Grateful for your knowledge sharing.

[@markhenryramsey9132]

Excellent lecture Emmy thank you very much for sharing it. M.Ramsey

[@wanderingbiku451]

Brilliant lecture. Having been in and out of therapy for much of my adult life, I'm always looking at new approaches. I'm intrigued by this but it seems to pivot on finding a passion(s) to build towards. And this is part of my problem, a real lack of ambition or drive for anything. If I could find something, I can really see this approach working. I shall investigate further.

Have read "The Game of Life And How To Play It". By Florence Scovel Shinn Metaphysical philosophy With affirmations to change your life using the power with in yourself walking with "God" so you are never alone.

[@kanshaism]

Love this lecture- thank you so much.

[@ebb8980]

Thank you so much for opening up this world in such a curious and interesting way. Much appreciated.

[@terapista28]

Such a great presentation.

[@dixidays-adventuresinmycam7110]

Fascinating and inspirational. Thank you! 🙏

[@emmacumberbatch8267]

I hear something new every time i listen.....

[@siyaindagulag.]

Your honest observation brings to light for me , how much I miss well written books . Spoken vs written word . Affective nuance is valuable (spoken) but my digestion seems better suited to reading. Ha.

[@nasrinahmedluna7848]

Very easy and informative explanation !! Wanna take your class in future !

[@anikab-b1881]

Great lecture. Thank you.

[@zee9031]

I am currently persuing my masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from upsate new york. Existential philosophy was something I kept getting confused about. But today this video/presentation helped me understand it really well.. Thank you Dr. Emmy Van Deurzen.

[@zahirj1]

Do you need to get client hours in?

[@russellbyrne376]

This is quite amazing

[@kiteoh]

one of my favorite thinkers!

[@dosconsultores6958]

Really, fantastic!!!!

[@hiabmeles1667]

Thank you very much. You deserve my respect 🙌

[@joym.8905]

Too bad the background color of the slides was so low-contrast. Perhaps future presentations can rectify that? Her material is worth seeing clearly. Is there a way to see the diagrams she didn't have time to present?

[@ginalynlagumbay1329]

Thank you 😊❤️

[@DisOcean8]

I've been unconsciously training my therapists in this for years.

[@abdulhamidkhamis4459]

I am intrested with your lesson

[@olivergarrett6493]

Why didn't they set the camera so we could read the screen. Unbelievably inept.

[@sarahjanequinn1882]

Wish this had a transcript attached

[@EntertainThemcom]

How does one find existential therapy available remotely?

[@effentjes]

Thank you.

[@ahmedisse7641]

That was amazing

[@therabbithat]

think and thank are not etymological cognates ... great lecture.. I do wish we'd gotten the phenomenological stuff but AH well :D

[@samanthadiorio5930]

[@paulheath885]

This philosophy is directed to those both sides of emptiness in out and from within everything everywhere outside. Directly your life again is as she said is a chore in sociology to attach meaning to what is psychologically broken and not repairable in the modern world and culturally in the scientific mind.

[@natejurgensen]

Damnit Phil, you left the door open.

[@polymathpark]

48:20 These are not "scientifically proven facts", scientists, and good philosophers, will never use terms like that to begin with. The smiling experiment is a non-starter due to its inherent priming effects. How do you test for "helping others" as being the cause for someone to feel better? These are good ideas, but we need to be careful not to "doth profess too much".

[@dantaellionj4005]

I think I’d crash on the chair 💤

[@hisnewlife3543]

I wish I could come to your office as a patient. I certainly need some help.

[@scruffyy]

Saying that you need help is so much of experiencing depression ❤

[@herbzrgreen]

🙏🔥💚

[@anisa2273]

i know this is 6 years late but your lecture was so amazing until you said you visited Israel... how can you teach such an interesting and kind philopsophy and support a genocide?! i really hope you've changed your opinion now at least

[@keithperreur-lloyd7844]

The human - like a hamster pet scurrying in its sphere - hasn’t got the point quite yet that all its prattle’s null and void becos de wheel iz made o’ Woid ! Thus I am The Slave of Word; (I’d thought I was its master!). Forgetting I invented it ‘s the cause of this disaster! ("Homily to Homomal") .........see E=W/A

[@danielfoliaco3873]

Agustin of Hippo was a better therapist than any other so far, at least you could have told us more about him instead of perpetuating the myth of Christianity divorced from rationality.

[@donandhiscampervan]

Hello your reply has just helped me in so many ways. I searched Augustin & my enlightenment has now taken me deeper into my Christian faith & away from psychology/philosophy. Thank you so much. 🙏

[@AghoraNath]

Earth is flat, we know the truth, you are wrong, I'm an existential philosopher
