Abstract

The contribution is aimed on burnout syndrome from the point of view of existential analysis and logotherapy. Logotherapy and existential analysis is quite a new psychological approach, conceived by Viktor Frankl, which could not develop in our country until 1989. A person suffering from chronic fatigue, irritation and loss of meaning - thus the burnout syndrome - is influenced by experience „I must”. This person loses his or her relationships, and experiences emptiness and hopelessness. Such individual is endangered as the meaning is related to values we live and we decide for. Such individual lacks inner feeling of accomplishment, does not perform values he or she believes in. Logotherapy, in this respect, can offer ways how to work with such person. This psychological approach teaches how to leave a „role” and how to create relationships within and later without.
