Clinical Services

Emphasizing the Existential Humanistic Perspective, Bob provides clinical consultation and clinical supervision, as well as trainings and workshops, for professionals, registered interns, and students.

Existential Humanistic Psychotherapy

Existential Humanistic Psychotherapy celebrates the uniqueness of each of us as human beings. It acknowledges that as humans we are aware of ourselves and our world. It also acknowledges that we can change our existence by exploring in depth how we have formed our view of ourselves and the world. Then, we have the choice to keep the awarenesses that support our fuller living and let go of the ones that inhibit our fuller living.

Existential Humanistic Psychotherapy also involves the exploration of certain universal themes of existence that we all confront as human beings. These include ideas that we all grapple with such as:

• engaging in life while knowing we all die
• finding meaning when confronting emptiness
• needing to be in relationship and needing to be alone
• wanting freedom while having responsibility

Therapeutic Approach

Bob’s therapeutic approach focuses on the client’s relationship with him/herself with the aim of facilitating the client’s ability to be more present with what they are experiencing. He supports clients to access and express their inner life. In doing this, the client discovers more of who they are, what they value, what they want, and how to actualize who they are in the world.

Bob also focuses on the relationship of the client to others in their life. His aim is to help people explore the ways they relate that are open and connected as well as the ways where they get stuck or inhibit themselves and each other. This allows the client to be more aware of and to take fuller responsibility for healthier ways of relating.
