Classical Adlerian Psychotherapy: Developed by Alfred Adler, focuses on individual psychology.

Key Assumption: All individuals experience a feeling of inferiority.

Common Reactions:

• Many outgrow these feelings through healthy compensations in life (career, family, friends).

• Some individuals retreat inward, relying on personal and unconscious frameworks, termed "private logic".

Private Logic: A subjective, fictional way to interpret self and reality, aimed at alleviating inferiority feelings.

Impact of Private Logic: While it provides temporary relief, it ultimately disrupts coping mechanisms and overall functioning.
