INFERIORITY FEELING AND COMMUNITY FEELING IN ADLER’S CONCEPT OF THE DUAL DYNAMIC

Abstract

I am convinced that Individual Psychologists - sometimes without being aware of it - intuitively sense this affective elements of the dual dynamic while working in cognitive, short term or analytical long term therapies. Again, if therapy is effective, the intuitive attuning to the psychic state of a client is present. This means that cognitive and depth oriented individual psychologists share a common experiential bridge. I am also certain that every one of us intuitively perceives the traumatic early experience of a patient, his or her opinion of life as well as his or her community feeling. In addition I am satisfied that the experience of this dual dynamic is a common ground in our Adlerian community
