Humanist by nature, existentialist by philosophy, cognitive-behavioral by intervention and governing rules.
Not perhaps what you were looking for specifically, but I'm learning that I lean heavily towards Kierkegaard and Sartre (and Yalom by natural progression, given my profession). But when it comes to dealing with things I fall back not on philosophy, but belief in the rational mind and taking cognitive and behavioral steps to change what you want to change and in making decisions about moral issues, life issues, and how I want to live my life. My father's family is Mennonite, my mother's is Southern Baptist, and S is reconnecting with his Jewish side of the family. It's easier to be eclectic.
