	Rollo May
		May was born April 21, 1909 in Ada, Ohio, a native American, and has often been referred to as "the father of existential psychotherapy." This, in itself, is an amazing accomplishment--his pioneering of an existential psychotherapy--since existential philosophy originated in Europe and, for the most part, met with hostility and contempt in the United States.
		Of course, May's background in theology, particularly the influence of the existential theologian Paul Tillich, was a major impetus for his desire to pursue a study of psychology informed by existentialist philosophy.
		For one, May argues that many psychotherapists at the time had assumed that, with Freud and his followers, most of the major discoveries had already been made, leaving nothing left but the 'mopping up operations' to fill in the details (Note: this attitude is typical of 'paradigms' in the sciences, as Kuhn has pointed out).

	AHP Perspective
		Rollo May once described his mentor, the theologian Paul Tillich, as “in that line of sensitive personalities who through the ages have sought to understand what it means to be a human being” (The Springs of Creative Living : A Study of Human Nature and God, Nashville: Abington-Cokesbury Press, 1940).
		May “lived” this issue from an early age in small towns of the Midwest, where he was born in 1909.
		Rollo lay bedridden for weeks but after an extraordinary climb to and meditation near the top of Mount Hortiati, in whose shadow Anatolia College lay, he emerged with a deeper vision of genuine Christianity, the rebirth of long dormant artistic impulses, and a hunger for experience.

	Free Essay Essay on Anxiety as Discussed by Rollo May (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		May looks closely at the concept of Being, and notes at one point that "Being" is a participle, also meaning in the process of "being something." An individual's Being is constantly changing throughout life, never reaching a set point.
		May sees encounters as a phenomenon where individuals take an extraordinary risk in forming trust bonds while determining the amount, if any, of self-disclosure the individual is willing to share.
		May notes that it is not possible in an encounter for "one person to have a feeling without the other having it to some degree also." Thus, Anxiety, when felt by one participant of the encounter, is generally felt by all other remaining participants.

	Rollo May
		May contends that psychology is mostly failing to speak to the vital issues and tensions of our times.
		Rollo May proposes that social values and individual freedom exist in dialectical relation (a continually mutual interplay). Hence there is no such thing as a “purely social value.”
		Finally, May concludes the chapter by emphasizing that values are acts rather than merely abstract propositions. In fact, “It is in the act of valuing that consciousness and behavior become united” (p.

		Author May also includes other aspects that will be helpful to the reader in gaining more awareness and insight to anxiety levels and what the artist may be suppressing emotionally or cognitively.
		May has some good insights into creativity--his positing creativity as existing between the subjective pole of the artist and the objective pole of the external world is a refreshing change from those who deny the existence of an objective external world.

	Intentionality, the Heart of Human Will, by Rollo May
		To take an illustration from therapy: a patient's voluntary intention, so far as he is consciously aware of it, is to get to his hour on time, to tell me this or that important thing that has happened to him, to relax and free associate.
		But his intentionality, in contrast, may well be to please me by playing the role of the "good patient," or to impress me with how brilliant his free associations are, or to force my unconditioned attention by describing what a catastrophic things he may do to himself or others.
		Now a fact which may be surprising to many readers, as it was to me, is that the first meaning given for intend in Webster's dictionary does not have to do with "purpose" or "design," such as when we say "I intend to do something," but rather, "to mean, signify.
