As a philosophical counsellor, Dr Luis de Miranda conducts individual online conversations with individuals from all over the world to help them make sense of their life, to help them feel a greater sense of the possible and of reality as an intercreative whole. He offers many discovery sessions free of charge to people from all continents who otherwise could not afford financially a form of therapy or dialogue that respects their dignity and thirst for meaning.

Philosophical health is not about finding what is wrong with a person in terms of diagnosis, norms or brain chemistry. It's about helping the person recover the mindful enthusiasm, holistic understanding and proactive serenity of being a whole human being, with a sense of purpose and the capacity to stand for what they believe is right and fair.
