THE PROBLEM OF PHILOSOPHICAL COUNSELING

I propose a reflection on the core problem of Philosophical Counseling. Philosophical Counseling will only make sense if there is a possibility of converting knowledge into practical wisdom and resorting to it while coping with uneasiness. I argue, however, that Philosophical Counseling is possible not because this relationship is ensured as indisputable evidence, but because it is highly problematic. Hence, to question the possibility of Philosophical Counseling its already in itself a contribution to its assertion as specifically philosophical aiding practice and, therefore, not its refutation.
