Where does a sense of meaning in life come from?
Do you often find yourself wondering how to find your purpose?
Does your world seem to be full of inauthentic tasks?
Perhaps you are feeling at a loss for what might be next on your journey.
How someone defines meaning and purpose in life is as unique as you are. In order to embrace the inevitability of change, exploring meaning and purpose also allows you to take responsibility for your own actions, discover your purpose, and define what meaning is in your life. Through the pursuit of discovering these things, you will learn to show up as your authentic selves.
While meaning and purpose can be defined separately, each holds a significant weight in different seasons. It is important to embrace the reality of meaning and purpose as you strive for connectedness and an awareness of the important moments that make up our existence.
Existential therapy techniques and interventions are used to help you dive deeper into your values, sense of worth, and relationships as well as many other areas of exploration. Some of these questions may include broadening perspectives and increasing your point of view, adopting growth mindsets, and utilizing various interventions to assess values, emotions, and dreams.
Questions of meaning and purpose can be overwhelming and cause symptoms of lowered self-esteem, increased anxiety, dissatisfaction, doubt, and depression. You will be able to carve out your own definition of meaning and purpose and our clinicians here at Momentum are here to help you navigate these difficult questions when they arise. Finding meaning and purpose are vital to overall wellbeing and are crucial parts of what makes us who we are.
If you are struggling with these kinds of concerns and questions and you want to know more about how to explore these themes in therapy, you can contact our therapists to schedule an appointment for a free 15 minute phone consultation.
