What is Logotherapy? Logotherapy is a form of psychotherapy developed by Austrian neurologist and psychiatrist Viktor Frankl in the 1940s. It is based on the premise that the primary motivational force of human beings is the search for meaning and purpose in life. Logotherapy aims to help individuals find meaning and purpose in their lives by focusing on their unique strengths, values, and aspirations. It encourages individuals to take responsibility for their own lives and to make choices that are consistent with their own values and goals. Logotherapy is often used to treat individuals with a wide range of psychological and emotional problems, including anxiety, depression, addiction, and post-traumatic stress disorder. It is also used to help individuals cope with difficult life situations, such as grief, loss, and chronic illness. Overall, logotherapy emphasizes the importance of finding meaning and purpose in life as a key factor in mental and emotional well-being.
