Adlerian Psychology is a psychological approach developed by Alfred Adler in the early 20th century. It emphasizes the importance of social interest, community, and the individual's drive for personal growth. Adler believed that feelings of inferiority can motivate people to strive for success and develop a sense of belonging.
Central to Adlerian Psychology is the concept of lifestyle, which refers to the unique way individuals perceive and respond to their experiences. Therapists work with clients to understand their lifestyle choices and how these choices influence their behavior and relationships, ultimately aiming to foster a sense of purpose and connection.
