Existential Analysis is a very personal and dialogical approach to psychotherapy based on the phenomenological method. It focuses on the aspect of freedom in the human being and its aim is to create conditions in which a person can live with inner consent and fulfilment. As it deals with the whole person and not the symptoms, it is a method that can be applied to all kinds of psychological problems and disorders.
The GLE International training programme was created by Dr Alfried Laengle in 1991 and is based on the work with Viktor Frankl and his independent research. Today, this training course is highly successful in North America, South America, Russia and across Europe.
DR. ALFRIED LAENGLE
Alfried LÄNGLE, M.D., Ph.D., Dr. h.c.mult., professor and honorary professor, was born in 1951 in Austria where he still lives. He studied medicine and psychology at the Universities of Innsbruck, Rome, Toulouse and Vienna. After years of hospital work in general medicine and psychiatry and in an outpatient department of social psychiatry he started a private practice in psychotherapy, general medicine and clinical psychology in Vienna (since 1982).
At the same time, he came into close collaboration with Viktor Frankl (1983-1991). He assisted Frankls lectures at the university for years and worked together with him in many relevant fields of Logotherapy. He is the founder and president (1983-2017) of the International Society for Logotherapy and Existential Analysis (Vienna www.existenzanalyse.org ), whose honorary president was Viktor Frankl until 1990. By this date, Frankl resigned from his honorary presidency because of Längle’s new developments in the field of existential analysis (methods, implication of existential self-experience in the training seminars, rejecting the exclusive use of the meaning paradigm in psychotherapy and enlarging its theoretical basis, implementation of biographical work).
