    They key aspect of existential therapy is that it helps the person to focus on and take
    responsibility for their choices and decisions. As such, it is most successful in cases
    where the individual is open minded and searching for meaning, and is willing for a
    constructive and honest self evaluation.

    Existential Therapy can help an individual in the following ways:

    Lead a meaningful life

    Live in the present

    Come to terms with death

    Embrace one’s choices and decisions

    Feel empowered by the freedom to create one’s own path

    How does existential therapy help?

    This therapy helps individuals find answers to some of life’s questions such as:

    Who Am I?

    What is the purpose of my life?

    Why do people suffer?

    What am I doing here?

    Although existential psychotherapy acknowledges the importance of an individual’s


    past, it focuses more on his or her current state of mind. The therapy aims to free the
    person from his own limited thoughts and accept their own responsibility in shaping
    their life.

    At Mindgram, we have expertise in existential psychotherapy along with a range of other


    psychotherapies. We work with our clients to understand their needs and identify the
    best form of treatment to help them lead a happy and fulfilling life.
