Being human, we are all perplexed at times about the meaning of life, the nature of human consciousness and the ego, human finitude, the apparent absurdity of our experience, the experience of death, alienation, freedom, and authenticity. Offering gentle, unobtrusive support, it does not seek to persuade you of the validity of any point of view or any set of values, but rather encourages you to think more clearly and deeply about your own beliefs, values and attitudes, and to situate your views in a wider context of alternative views.
Philosophical counseling is is private.
Human problems are not invariably psychological. They may result from a lack of clarity. And this dynamic interaction promotes clear thinking about fundamental issues. It does not , however, address conditions of clinical depression, delusional tendencies, or other clearly non-philosophical problems that should be handled by a professional psychiatrist. Philosophical counseling is not concerned with past traumas or childhood wounds.
