Existentialists work with people through therapies, helping to realize that they (people) make themselves throughout their lives, understand that they have a freedom to choose (make decisions and choose their path in life), and realize that because the world is holistic, whatever people decide to do, it will affect on them, on surrounding people and the whole world. Existentialists also explain that the existence is temporary; they talk about death and help people realize that because there is death, they should LIVE their lives, making choices, and fulfilling their dreams and aims.
