The field of psychology has become increasingly vital in the modern era, as individuals struggle to find meaning and purpose in a world that can often feel confusing and overwhelming. Unfortunately, many people have turned to unfounded beliefs and pseudoscience in search of answers. This is where philosophy and philosophical thinking can provide a crucial foundation for understanding ourselves and the world around us.
On this blog, I explore various psychological beliefs from a philosophical perspective, analyzing their validity, soundness, and reliability. By delving deep into these issues, we can gain a more accurate understanding of the human psyche and how it shapes our behavior.
As C.S. Lewis once noted, bad philosophy needs to be answered, and that is precisely what I aim to do here. By engaging with philosophical questions surrounding psychology, we can develop a more comprehensive understanding of the world and ourselves. Through this pursuit of knowledge, we can become more optimistic and lead more fulfilling lives. Join me as we explore the fascinating intersection of philosophy and psychology.

Logotherapy leans heavily on the philosophy of existentialism, a school of philosophy that focuses on distinctly and universally human characteristics such as death, identity, isolation, free will, and the meaning of life.
