Mark Vernon is a psychotherapist and writer, with a keen interest in ancient philosophy, as well as the illumination of inner life. He’s one of my favourite thinkers.
Mark unpacks psychotherapy, opening the door to big questions:
- What’s the meaning of anxiety?
- Can it tell us anything?
- What are the benefits of engaging with our distress?
I hope it’s as fruitful for you as it is me.
