Essays on Individual Psychology

Individual psychology is a psychotherapeutic system developed by Alfred Adler in the 1920s, one of the first psychodynamic movements that separated from the classical psychoanalysis of Z. Freud. Adler was the first to propose the term "inferiority complex," the struggle against which, along with the striving for perfection, is dedicated to the life of every individual. Accordingly, the task of psychotherapy is to support and guide him in this process. The book presents articles and lectures covering the main tenets of Adler's theory: the mechanisms of psychological development, social human relationships, and relationships with the environment, etc., as well as the goals and methods of therapeutic work.
