Discover how to work more intentionally with clients’ emotions, lived experiences, and relationships while honoring their individual needs and readiness for change. [ Register Now](#EnrollmentOptions) Led by Louis Hoffman, PhD, a licensed psychologist and internationally recognized educator in existential-humanistic psychotherapy, this training draws on decades of clinical practice, research, and teaching. Dr. Hoffman is a Fellow of the American Psychological Association and nine of its divisions, recipient of the Rollo May Award, and author or editor of 28 books, including Case Formulation in Existential-Humanistic Therapy and The Evidence-Based Foundations of Existential-Humanistic Therapy. His extensive experience in psychotherapy and clinical supervision brings both scholarly depth and practical relevance to the training. Dr. Hoffman will demonstrate how existential-humanistic principles inform moment-to-moment therapeutic decisions. Through a phenomenological approach, participants will examine how to set aside assumptions, explore clients’ subjective experiences, and select interventions that respond to what is unfolding in the therapeutic encounter. The workshop connects existential-humanistic theory with clinical application while considering the integration of research evidence, clinical expertise, and client preferences. The training examines primary existential-humanistic interventions, including working with psychological protections, meaning-centered approaches, genuineness, therapeutic self-disclosure, and embodied empathy. Participants will explore how emotion, relationship, and meaning interact to facilitate therapeutic change. Attention will also be given to recognizing existential concerns in everyday clinical presentations and inviting greater awareness of emotional experiences, bodily sensations, and relational patterns without compromising clients’ safety or autonomy. Multicultural perspectives will inform discussions of how culture, power, marginalization, and personal values shape the therapeutic relationship and the selection of interventions.
