What is Existentialism?

About this episode

This episode explores the elusive definition of Existentialism and its relevance to human issues.

In Season 1 we defined and explored the basics of Mentalizing. In Season 2 we gave a more detailed overview of Mentalization Based Treatment. In this first episode of Season 3 we explore the second focus of our Podcast--Existentialism. Like Mentalizing, Existentialism is hard to define--impossible perhaps. Here we attempt to show why definition of this field of thought is so elusive, and offer a suggestion focused on the issues that all humans grapple with.
