Both an academic author and a poet, Dr. Louis Hoffman has recently published four books.

Letters for My Father: Grief, Love, and Self-Exploration: The book is a personal exploration of grief after the death of a father. Using letters to his father and others in his or his father's life, he authentically engages in the grieving process in a powerful way, sure to encourage self-reflection in the reader as well. 

Case Formulation in Existential-Humanistic Therapy: Published by the American Psychological Association, this book presents a nonhierarchical, liberatory case formulation framework for existential–humanistic (EH) therapy that balances structure and adaptability. The authors have developed a flexible template that prioritizes general principles and client collaboration over scripted procedures or techniques. It emphasizes EH therapy’s dynamic, creative approach while offering a structure that makes EH therapy easy to learn for students and to help practitioners meet insurance needs and to operate within regimented treatment settings.

The Evidence-Based Foundations of Existential-Humanistic Therapy:  This comprehensive volume aligns existential–humanistic therapy with the standards of evidence-based practice in psychology (EBPP). It provides a solid empirical foundation for existential-humanistic therapy as a therapeutic modality, while also demonstrating how it can serve as an integrative approach. The book identifies evidence for primary existential competencies and best practices, as well as multicultural considerations for prioritizing an individual client’s needs.
