Description |
My approach to philosophical counseling holds Christianity to be the only true philosophy according to St. Justin Martyr who taught Jesus Christ as Logos or Word of God. My Christian counseling is epistemological (beliefs & traditions), axiological (values, principles, ethics & morals), and ontological (passions of vice vs virtue) with and emphasis on Eiriksonian philosophy (trust vs mistrust), (autonomy vs. shame and doubt),(initiative vs. guilt), (industry vs. inferiority), (identity vs role confusion), (intimacy vs isolation), (generativuty vs stagnation), (ego integrity vs despair), (gerotranscendence). I also focus on Pondonian conflict (mitigtion: resolution and prevention) in organizations, family, friends, associates and relationships between others and within oneself. I am philosophically bent towards metaphysics which deals with something called "qua being." After all, I am a metaphysician. Metaphysics is the highest or lowest form of things being things on a the fundamental essential and existential level. |
