Dr. Jonathan Davidov (social work), and his main professional field of interest is stress and anxiety, and how they connect to free will and meaning in life. He personally encountered anxiety at an early stage in my life, and it took him about 25 years and 3 academic degrees in Philosophy (BA) and Social-Work (MA and Ph.D.), post-doc, and a lot of academic research to wrap her head around this experience and to understand how to transform this unpleasant encounter to an opportunity to encourage emotional and mental growth. He has come to realize that every stress and anxiety is rooted in something meaningful for the person who experiences it. And as such, anxiety can be perceived as a vital hint that can lead a person to a meaningful trail in his life, and to personal growth.
