Existential Analysis in the Practice of Telephone Psychological Counselling

Abstract

The article briefly describes theory and methodology of the contemporary existential analysis: the conception of four fundamental existential motivations, methods and techniques for counselling and therapy. Case examples and statistical data quoted show that existential analysis can be effectively used in working by phone with the wide range of cases, and its efficiency is comparable with that of face-to-face counselling.
