I use phenomenology as the core of my therapeutic practice. I get to study Heidegger with a group of therapists who present cases using Heideggarian (existential/phenomenology) and psychoanalytic relational models.

This shit becomes alive when using it in practice and watching clients use key themes to integrate and move towards health. It’s pretty damn cool.

Dude, that is extremely my shit. I just got a bachelor's in psychology and philosophy and have been debating where exactly I want to go from here. I'm leaning towards therapy but I don't really love a lot of the more modern cbt-esque forms of it. My favorite class throughout college was without a doubt phenomenology, I feel like I've really integrated that perspective into my own thinking.

I'd love to hear whatever you have to say about your work; how you got into it, how you're applying the view in your cases, any advice you'd have for someone moving into their masters. I've debated trying to get into a program for Jungian/Depth psychology but the work you're doing sounds exciting.
