PHILOSOPHYCENTER

		Established in 1993, PhilosophyCenter is a leading online philosophical counseling resource offering proven support for everyday living. The work we do is based on models and methods at the cutting edge of applied philosophy, many of which we developed. Combining the ancient wisdom of the Stoics with insights from modern philosophy and the eye-opening discoveries of the new physics, we work with clients around the world to facilitate the self-work that leads to greater awareness, a clearer sense of meaning and purpose, and a deeper appreciation for the miracle, mystery, and opportunity of our being-here.

		Philip Golabuk is an internationally acclaimed author and educator. After completing his undergraduate and graduate degrees in philosophy at the University of Florida with special studies in existentialism, theory of knowledge, and phenomenology, he taught philosophy at the college level and as part of a community outreach program to inmates in jail and prison. He has written several books in applied philosophy that were published in the U.S. and overseas in translation by national and international publishers including Harper & Row and Ernst Kabel Verlag and reviewed in The Washington Post and Harper's Magazine. In 1993, he founded PhilosophyCenter, subsequently developing a number of courses in practical philosophy as well as leading-edge philosophical facilitating, counseling, and coaching models and methods. Philip is a member of the National Philosophical Counseling Association. He is also an accomplished guitarist, ballet dancer, and fine artist, proving that there are philosophers who actually can do things.

		We’d like to acknowledge some outstanding individuals for their invaluable contributions to our work, most notably Dr. Jimi Millikan, gifted philosopher, advisor, and lifelong friend who taught us to practice philosophy not merely academically but as Socrates did, "in the marketplace." We also would like to express our deep appreciation for Dr. Tom Hanna, inspiring professor and somatics pioneer, who instilled in his students an abiding love for ancient Greek thought and its profound and enduring relevance. Finally, these acknowledgments must include a debt of gratitude to the immortal Socrates himself, declared by the Delphic Oracle to be the wisest of men in knowing that he knew nothing. If there ever has been a greater teacher in the history of Western culture, he has yet to be discovered.
