Who is the propounder of Existential therapy?

• A. Boss and Rollo
• B. Carl Rogers
• C. Perls
• D. None of them

Hint:

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Core idea. {Existential therapy} centers on meaning, freedom, authenticity and responsibility in the face of anxiety, isolation and death.
Step 2: Match founders. The approach was shaped by European {existential analysts} like Medard Boss (and earlier Binswanger) and popularized in the U.S. by Rollo May. Hence “Boss and Rollo” captures its founding lineage.
Step 3: Eliminate distractors. Carl Rogers founded {client/person-centered therapy}; Fritz Perls founded {Gestalt therapy}. Therefore (A) is correct. \[ \boxed{\text{(A) Boss and Rollo.}} \]
