Reconnect with What Matters: Meaning-Focused Individual Therapy

Finding Meaning in Life Through Individual Therapy

By Shannen Yee LMFT Associate — Individual therapists in Corpus Christi

Life can feel heavy, confusing, and sometimes downright unbearable. We face challenges that make us question our purpose, our choices, and even our own worth. Individual therapy is a space to pause, reflect, and explore these questions without judgment.

Exploring the “Why” Behind Your Struggle

In logotherapy, Viktor Frankl emphasized that even in suffering, we can find meaning. Many clients arrive not necessarily because their lives are “broken,” but because the sense of significance they once felt has become obscured by stress, disappointment, or loss. Individual therapy allows you to investigate not only how to cope with life’s difficulties, but why you want to engage with life at all.

Creating Space for Self-Discovery

Therapy becomes a laboratory for understanding yourself more deeply. Here, you can explore your values, your fears, and the narratives you tell yourself about who you are. Through reflection, dialogue, and guidance, you begin to uncover the threads of meaning woven into your experiences — even those that feel painful or chaotic.

Moving From Survival to Purpose

Existential therapy encourages us to confront life’s uncertainties, rather than avoid them. By acknowledging the realities of freedom, responsibility, and mortality, you can make choices that align more authentically with your values. Individual therapy helps transform feelings of emptiness, anxiety, or stagnation into opportunities for growth and purposeful action.
