Existential Togetherness: Toward a Common Black Religious Heritage (2019)
The notion of community entails more than just shared space in the here-and-now moment. For African Americans especially, communal engagement is a sacred experience that stretches from the mundane to the spectacular in a cyclical historical pattern. DeWayne R. Stallworth illumines the broadness of this African American religious experience by looking back to the first shared experience of unbiased community that occurred during slavery.

What does it mean to practice therapy in an existential way? What are the different existential approaches? What are their strengths and limitations?
Existential Therapy (100 Key Points) (2015)
Less of an orientation and more a way of understanding the challenges of being human, existential therapy draws on rich and diverse philosophical traditions and ways of viewing the world. Traditionally it has been seen as difficult to summarise and comprehend and the air of mystery surrounding existential ideas has been exacerbated by the dense language often used by philosophers and practitioners.
Existential Counselling & Psychotherapy in Practice (2012)
Offering a concrete framework and practical methods for working from an existential perspective, the bestselling is now in its . Central to the book is the belief that many of our problems arise out of the essential paradoxes of human existence, rather than from personal pathology.
The Existential Pleasures of Engineering (Thomas Dunne Book) (1996)

Existential-Integrative Psychotherapy (2015)
Existential-Integrative Psychotherapy promises to be a landmark in the fields of psychotherapeutic theory and practice.

Irrational Man: A Study in Existential Philosophy (1962)
Widely recognized as the finest definition of existentialist philosophy ever written, this book introduced existentialism to America in 1958. Barrett speaks eloquently and directly to concerns of the 1990s: a period when the irrational and the absurd are no better integrated than before and when humankind is in even greater danger of destroying its existence without ever understanding the meaning of its existence.
