    Adlerian Therapy

    Uploaded by

    Adlerian therapy is a short-term, goal-oriented psychodynamic therapy based on Alfred Adler's theories that feelings of inferiority can motivate success if reframed. The therapy focuses on developing an understanding of one's personality and interconnectedness with others. It proceeds in four stages from engagement to reorientation, reframing attitudes and behaviors blocking success. One core tenet is exploring individual behavior in context of fitting into community and society, including effects of birth order on personality development and future relationships.

    ADLERIAN THERAPY

    What is Adlerian Therapy?

    Adlerian therapy is a short-term, goal-oriented, and positive psychodynamic therapy based on


    the theories of Alfred Adler—a one-time colleague of Sigmund Freud. Adler focused much of his
    research on feelings of inferiority versus superiority, discouragement, and a sense of belonging
    in the context of one’s community and society at large. According to Adler, feelings of inferiority
    can result in neurotic behavior but, in the right setting, can also be used as motivation to strive
    for greater success. Adlerian therapy focuses on the development of
    individual personality while understanding and accepting the interconnectedness of all humans.

    When It's Used

    Adlerian therapy is an evidence-based approach that can be applied successfully in the


    treatment of any type of psychological disorder or mental illness. Adlerian therapy may be used
    in conjunction with other therapeutic approaches such as play therapy, art therapy, and culturally
    sensitive counseling, as it best suits the needs of the individuals involved. An Adlerian approach
    can be employed with children, adolescents, adults, individuals, couples, families, or other
    groups.

    What to Expect

    Adlerian therapy proceeds in four stages:

    1. Engagement, or creating a collaborative relationship with your therapist

    2. Assessment of your personal history, with an emphasis on birth order and


    early childhoodmemories

    3. Insight, wherein the therapist helps you view your situation from a different perspective

    4. Reorientation, wherein the therapist suggests active steps you can take outside of
    therapy to reinforce newly developed insights and perhaps learn even more about yourself
    and your capabilities

    Overall, the focus is on reframing the attitudes, beliefs, and lifestyle choices that block success,
    so that you are more effective at reaching your desired goals.

    How It Works

    One of the core tenets of Adlerian therapy is that individual behavior must be explored within the
    context of a client’s sense of “fitting in” with their community, and society at large. In some
    cases, this extends to birth order and how one’s role within the family affects the development of
    one’s personality and future relationships. Adlerian therapists often work in schools, clinics,
    corporations, and other community settings, helping to create learning environments that
    provide a sense of belonging and respect for all. These therapists work especially with those
    people who are most in need of positive, future-oriented counseling and encouragement.
