It is draining juggling school, career, relationships, family, pets, etc. You get so caught up in the day to day that you've put the health of your mind, body, and spirit on the backburner. You may be here because you are struggling to get over past hurts that you've never told a soul. You want better relationships but don't know how. Maybe you are able to treat others with extraordinary kindness but have difficulty thinking nice things about yourself. Perhaps, what feels like loss after loss has you feeling numb and detached and has left you struggling to know who you are and how to move forward.

Relationships are hard and take work. We grow up with different perspectives and values in life that are sometimes not compatible. Some of us like order and having things where they are supposed to be. Others just don't give that much attention. Frustrations come out of this difference of life style. So how do you cope with these problems? What are the things that really trigger your reactions? Restructuring and reframing your approach to express your wants and needs to your partner works wonders.

Adlerian Therapists

How does Adlerian psychology work?

In the framework of Adlerian therapy, people are motivated by a sense of belonging and community, which drives them to surmount feelings of inferiority so as to contribute to their society; fulfilling these desires can help people flourish. Adlerian therapy proceeds in four stages—engagement, assessment, insight, and reorientation—in an overall effort to understand the client’s past and to achieve their present-day humanistic goals.

Is Adlerian therapy humanistic?

Yes, Adlerian psychology is humanistic; it focuses on the whole person, emphasizes their strengths rather than just their symptoms, and centers them in determining how they can grow and flourish. This school of thought informed the work of Abraham Maslow, who went on to develop humanistic psychology.

How long does Adlerian therapy take?

Adlerian therapy is a short-term, goal-oriented form of therapy that takes around 15 to 20 weekly sessions. Of course, some people may be in therapy for a shorter or longer time frame; length depends on the individual and the problem or condition they wish to treat. Clients can ask their therapist about the timeline for treatment before they begin and check in periodically to ensure that they’re on the same page in terms of progress.

Is Adlerian therapy evidence based?

There is not as much evidence to support the effectiveness of Adlerian therapy as there is for other types of therapy such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. But Adlerian therapy may be the right therapy for some people—whether they’re seeking to treat mental disorders or achieve self-growth—especially those looking for a holistic approach that emphasizes relationships, community, self-worth, and purpose.
