Logotherapy In Telephone Counseling


While humans can survive just like animals living within the first two dimensions (satisfying physical needs and thinking), logotherapy offers a deeper connection to the soul and an opportunity to explore that which makes us uniquely human.




Logotherapy in Telephone Counseling



Logotherapy has significant application to every dimension of an individual (the tri-dimensional ontology). Psychologically, logotherapy uses the specific techniques of paradoxical intention and dereflection to deal with problems of anxiety, compulsive disorders, obsessions, and phobias. These will be discussed in further detail in the next section.


Since logotherapy was founded on a preface of suffering, it is a natural therapy for treating traumatic experiences. Logotherapy is a useful treatment for individuals with acute stress disorder or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).


Logotherapy has been effective in reducing cravings and participation in drinking among alcoholics. Additionally, logotherapy groups successfully improved the meaning of life and mental health among wives of alcoholics (Cho, 2008).


Researchers measured cortisol levels (stress hormone) and scores from the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) among two groups of 15 patients. One group received logotherapy treatment for a total of six weeks (45-minute sessions once per week), and the control group received standard cancer treatment.


Similarly, two-hour sessions of logotherapy among a group of 22 breast cancer patients significantly decreased BDI scores (Hagighi, Khodaei, and Sharifzadeh, 2012). This research demonstrated that logotherapy can be a beneficial treatment for individuals struggling through cancer or other major illnesses.


There is also significant research to support the use of logotherapy in group settings. Instructing both individuals and groups on the dimensions of responsibility, freedom, and values can help decrease suffering and increase various measures of psychological wellbeing.


When comparing the effectiveness of gestalt and logotherapy in a group setting of divorced women, logotherapy provided a more substantial decrease in depression, anxiety, and aggression (Yousefi, 2006).


Group logotherapy also led to increased psychological wellbeing, positive relationships, autonomy, personal growth, and mastery among mothers of children with intellectual disabilities (Faramarzi & Bavali, 2017).


Dr. Melissa Madeson,Thank you for your well defined points about V Frankle and logotherapy. I once led a group of seniors at a convalescent center. We discussed the meaningful moments they recalled in their lives. I encouraged the participants to write their short and focused memoirs. These writings were subsequently published in a small volume. The writers and participants took part in a public reading, with family, friends, facility staff , and public in attendance. Overall, the lectures, writing, and readings were meaningful to all involved.


Relatively few of these interventions have targeted complicated grief (CG) symptoms specifically rather than depression and distress more generally. Three review articles have described the literature on these CG-specific interventions.42-41 The most recent, a meta-analysis of randomized, controlled trials, found a pooled standard mean difference (a measure of effect size) of -0.53 (95% CI: -1.00 to -0.07) favoring interventions targeting complicated grief relative to supportive counseling, IPT, or wait list.43 The four interventions that were more efficacious than the comparison condition were all based, at least in part, on cognitive-behavioral principles. 14,24,45 An interpretive intervention focused on increasing clients* insight about conflict and trauma related to their loss was not efficacious.46,47 The effects of the CG interventions appeared to grow larger at follow-up, although long-term data were only available from a single study.14


Ann initially had difficulty with imaginal revisiting. At the beginning of session 4, she asked a lot of questions about the rationale and procedures for the exercise; most of these were the same questions she had asked during session 2. The therapist normalized her concerns and praised her willingness to do something painful to help resolve her grief and come to terms with the loss. Because Ann was so hesitant to begin, the therapist also told her only to spend 2 minutes during the first exercise. Ann did so and was, as she expected, very distressed. During the debriefing process, Ann sobbed as she expressed her guilt over having slept through her husband's passing and her agony at not knowing whether she could have saved him had she been awake. She also expressed anger toward her husband's primary care doctor, who had performed routine annual physical examinations but had never diagnosed cardiac problems. She was able to perform the visualization exercise aimed at putting the story away and reported a decrease in distress to manageable levels. Although she agreed to listen to the tape between sessions and scheduled a telephone check-in with her therapist after completing the exercise the first time, when the time came, Ann told the therapist she was not yet ready.

To help clients explore and develop greater meaning in their lives and enjoy those benefits, psychologists use strategies from a variety of therapies, including logotherapy, meaning therapy, existential therapy and a combination of approaches. While more research is needed to show which interventions work best, such meaning-related work is helping people identify, prioritize and act on what matters most to them, says Clara Hill, PhD, a University of Maryland, College Park, psychology professor and author of "Meaning in Life: A Therapist's Guide" (APA, 2018).


Wong is among the psychologists who have developed therapies that help clients foster more meaningful lives. Many of these interventions trace their origins to Viktor Frankl, the Austrian psychiatrist and author of "Man's Search for Meaning," first published in 1946, which chronicles his experiences in four Nazi concentration camps. After his release, Frankl went on to create logotherapy, which holds that humankind's main motivation is finding meaning in life, as opposed to striving mainly for pleasure or power, as other theorists emphasized.

From my brief encounter with Frankl over the telephone, I could sense his unwavering passion to restore the soul in psychology (Wong, 2021b), just one year before his death. From my personal experience as an 84-year-old man, I know that it must have been exhausting for a 91-year-old Frankl to talk to me over the barriers of distance and different accents for more than half an hour. I was awe-struck and deeply loved by a soul on fire for logotherapy. 041b061a72
