Moments of Alienation & Reconciliation in Viktor Frankl's Life

Christopher Domig speaks to Viktor Frankl's grandson Alex Vesely about pivotal moments of alienation and reconciliation in Viktor Frankl's life, how  Frankl's Logotherapy differs distinctly from Freud's Psychoanalysis and Adler's Individual Psychology,  how Frankl continues to pay attention to beauty and nature amidst life's most harrowing moments, and his desire to be reconciled to places and people dear to him.
