Late in life, Heidegger became engaged as a tutor and consultant in a project that led to the establishment of one of the first schools of existential psychotherapy - daseinanalysis. Much of this work emerged in the vital but little discussed Zollikon Seminare. Hans Cohn explores the role of Heidegger's thought in providing an alternative basis for psychotherapeutic practice to the dominant psychodynamic, humanistic and cognitive approaches. Cohn also focuses strongly on the practical therapeutic relevance of Heidegger's ideas.
Hans W Cohn is a psychotherapist in private practice and lectures at the School of Psychotherapy and Counselling at Regent's College in London, where he also supervises students who have chosen to engage in a programme leading to an Advanced Diploma in Existential Psychotherapy.
