Analytische Individualpsychologie in der therapeutischen Praxis

This book poses questions that we therapists ask patients whose existence is threatened by hidden fear and hopelessness. These fears of patients of not being able to live or survive, consciously or unconsciously lead to a commitment to countervail the perceived threats. Alfred Adler sees a general principle of human life in this compensation. The special feature of the individual analytical psychology is in emphasising the individual experience and in the concept of double dynamics of compensation and sense of community. This vision is the result of case vignettes from therapy.
