In the final episode of a four part series on existential psychotherapy, Margaret and I take on the problem of meaning. This one is a little different that the other problems of man but they all intertwine like a single cable when it comes to living your life. Join us for discussion of philosophy, purpose and how to talk to your patients about your questions of meaninglessness.
