“…Fifth, today’s students have grown up during an era in which existential-humanistic psychology and therapy are regarded as a separate school among numerous other orientations and in which it often is viewed as a historical relic (DeRobertis, 2013, 2016). With fewer than 5% of psychotherapy training faculty identifying as humanistic in recent years (Levy & Anderson, as cited in Levitt & Whelton, 2023), humanistic psychology is far from the integral vision for all psychology proposed by the likes of May (1967, 1983), Maslow (1971, 1987, 1999), and van Kaam (1966).
