Washington Case Conference

May 9, 2025:
Via Zoom

Topic: To Be Or Not To Be: The Existential Sensibility and Psychodynamic Therapy

Presented by:  Jane Prelinger, MSW and Michael Stadter, PhD
 An existential sensibility focuses on fundamental themes of being human and the joys and suffering inherent in existence. This sensibility is not prescriptive nor is it a pathology model. It is individual for therapist and patient. Important themes include, for example, life, death, joy, vitality, absurdity, serious illness or disability, trauma, isolation, loss, aging, identity, and the search for meaning. The conference will include contributions from existential philosophy and existential therapists. During the seminar, we will briefly discuss some of these themes, our own clinical work, and invite participants to offer their own clinical vignettes
