From an overall drab and tired appearance to the flashbacks that constantly engulf him, Willy Loman stands as the highlight of what a skewed American Dream can do to a person. However, is this the only cause behind Willy Loman's

Basically, a client will be able to navigate their own lives toward a more socially productive and meaningful experience. Adlerian therapy falls under the background focused category of the BETA model. Adler believed that the past of an individual, their

I like to think my own therapeutic style can be interchangeable in a way that I can accommodate any client depending on their unique situations and goals. Exploring Adlerian theory allowed me to question how I could implement this approach if I knew it would be helpful to my client. Though it is not my preferred theoretical approach to therapy, it does have concepts that were not taken into account by previous theorists. Adlerian theory differs from many other approaches because it is greatly known

Puckett, 1 Alfred Adler was born in 1870 in Vienna, a second son of middle-class secular Jewish parents. Like Freud, Adler was a physician, and in 1902, he became a charter member of Freud's organization.

Adler soon founded his own group, the Society for Individual Psychology. (McGraw-Hill, 2015) Similarly to Freud, Adler also suffered from enormous amounts

Juilliard’s drama division faculty in 1968, created the school’s four year drama division curriculum. Andrea Olmstead, writer, affirms in the novel “Juilliard: A History,” that the “Drama Division of the Juilliard School could only develop originality in acting if it could train its own actors from the very beginning” (Pg. 217)

Alexander Wendt's Social Theory of International Politics proposes a theory that places great importance on the role of identity, shared ideas and norms in defining state behaviour. He theorises a structural and idealist worldview which contrasts with the individualism and materialism that underpins much of the mainstream international relations theories. As I explore the gist of Wendt's book, I will attempt to summarise the key findings, contributions to International Relations and to a certain

My definition of common sense is to be able to draw from past and present knowledge while still being able to evaluate the circumstances for what could create the best outcome. I do believe common sense is pretty natural in all humans, no matter where or how they have grown up. I also believe that given each person's natural giftings there are some matters that make ones common sense more valuable than others. This is why being open to other ideas is important because if each person is so stuck in

My birth order is that of first born, although only by five minutes. Yes, that is because I'm a twin and an identical one at that. Anyways, when reviewing the sections in the textbook and other sources on Adler's basic theory's and assertions about birth order I did find that much of what I read fit my life style. Idea's such as that first born children carry the initial esteem of their parents to fertilize adolescences into supporting the growth of the strongest type of social confidence, the idea

The torture of millions of people in concentration camps was done with ruthlessness and without meaning. Millions of people were killed mechanically, on a schedule. Those who survived had to find a purpose in their lives in order to continue living. This is the lead subject in Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl.

Until the beginning of the current semester as a student in group counseling courses, I had very little knowledge of group counseling. I had the impression group counseling was specially intended for alcoholics anonymous or narcotics anonymous. Through the article provided to me I was not only able to see group counseling in a different setting, but I was able to relate to how successful group therapy can be. While reading Adlerian-Based Positive Group Counseling Intervention with Emotionally Troubled

In The Human Search for Meaning, Viktor Frankl uses his personal experience of the Nazi concentration camp to explain how despite the Nazi’s imposing suffering on him and being imprisoned that they had no control over him. Frankl starts of the piece simply by listing simple desires and comparing them to how a dream of a Nazi camper is nothing compared to his reality when he wakes up. Frankl expresses the idea that you the individual are responsible for how you behave despite the conditions you may
