Abstract
This project advocates for an existential lens upon the teaching of clinical psychology. Four ongoing lines of inquiry are evaluated, followed by recommendations for instructors and supervisors to more robustly embrace an existentially-informed mindset which emphasizes the subjectivity, phenomenology, and dynamic nature of human experience.
