Licensed Psychotherapist | Conservative Thinker | Logotherapy Practitioner | Author

 

Rabbi Daniel Schonbuch, LMFT, is a psychotherapist, conservative thinker, logotherapy practitioner, and the author of five acclaimed books, including Viktor Frankl and the Psychology of the Soul: A Guide to Finding Meaning and Emotional Wellness.

A conservative-leaning therapist deeply influenced by Viktor Frankl and Dennis Prager, Schonbuch takes a bold stand against the mainstream psychology industry’s obsession with self-indulgence and victimhood. Instead of promoting endless self-affirmation, he offers a refreshingly traditional approach—rooted in responsibility, faith, family, and purpose.

Schonbuch challenges the modern mental health establishment for failing to address America's deeper crisis: a lack of meaning. While mainstream culture glorifies self-love, therapy, and fleeting happiness, he argues that true fulfillment comes from connecting to something greater—whether it’s faith, strong values, or personal responsibility.

At a time when depression, anxiety, and addiction are skyrocketing, Schonbuch believes it’s time to return to the wisdom of the past. He brings a powerful and timely message for your audience: meaning—not self-worship—is the real key to mental wellness.

Schonbuch Explores These Timely Issues:

🔥 The Crisis of Meaning in a Culture of Self-Worship – How America’s obsession with self-love and self-esteem has created an empty, directionless generation—and why rediscovering faith, family, and purpose is the only solution.

 

🔥 How the Left Has Hijacked Psychology – Why modern therapy has become more about validating feelings than building resilience, and how progressive ideology has replaced science with activism in the mental health field.

🔥 Faith, Family, and Mental Health: Why Traditional Values Matter – The science and spirituality behind why strong moral foundations, faith, and family bonds make people more resilient and mentally strong.
 

🔥 Addiction and the Void: How Meaninglessness Fuels the Epidemic – Why skyrocketing addiction rates aren’t just about substances, but about a crisis of purpose—and how reconnecting with meaning is the real solution.

 

🔥 Judeo-Christian Values: The Answer to Modern Mental Health Challenges – How the timeless wisdom of faith, moral responsibility, and family bonds can restore resilience, fulfillment, and purpose in an era of confusion.

🔥 Why the Happiness Industry Is Making Us Miserable – A deep dive into how chasing happiness actually leads to more anxiety and depression, and why meaning—not pleasure—is the real key to fulfillment.

🔥 Resilience in an Age of Victimhood: How to Take Back Control of Your Life – Why personal responsibility, gratitude, and purpose are the antidotes to today’s culture of entitlement and victimhood.
