Why We Need Meaning and Hope More Than Ever
Welcome! This Substack blog, Finding Meaning and Hope, was started in response to the many people I have encountered who recognize that they lack meaning and purpose in their lives.
I hold a PhD in Clinical Psychology and currently work in private practice. Perhaps most relevant to this blog is that I’m a student and teacher of existential psychoanalysis as well as a person of faith. Much of what I write about stems from common themes that arise frequently in my work as a psychotherapist. Why do so many individuals feel anxious, fearful, and hopeless when we are better educated, healthier, and more prosperous than in any other time in history? My goal is to try to make some of the more complicated themes in existential psychology more accessible while finding hope in the search for meaning. I will use my training and expertise to explore the existential threats to our minds and bodies, while also addressing that which is at our very core and makes us human, our spirits.
Thank you for joining me on this journey.
