A proposito di questo titolo

Episode 11 introduces Viktor Frankl’s logotherapy and the clinical relevance of meaning. We explore the existential vacuum—how a loss of meaning can present as boredom, depression, or compliance with roles—and why this can become a hidden driver of distress.

We also unpack two key logotherapeutic ideas: paradoxical intention (approaching feared experiences to disrupt anxiety cycles) and dereflection (reducing symptom-focused preoccupation by reorienting towards purpose and values). This episode positions meaning as an essential part of integrative psychotherapy, especially when “functioning” is present but vitality is missing.
