hey there. i haven't seen an existential therapist before, but i have heard from a few people who have.
this website provides some information about existential therapy.
http://www.existential-therapy.com/
There is also a wiki article (though the first reference looks better)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Existential_therapy
I didn't realise that Yalom was an existential therapist...
I'm sorry I don't have experiences with existential therapy to share... Are you going to see an existential therapist? I'd be interested to know how that goes for you :-)
PS welcome to psychcentral!
