“Exploring Therapy Modalities: Understanding Criteria for Psychoanalytic Therapy and Adlerian Psychotherapy”

As you have learned from several of your readings, choosing a therapy modality is not always an easy or straightforward process. Multiple observations and assessment methods are often employed to reach a diagnosis and then match a therapy that has been shown to be effective.     
For each therapy modality, you will identify the following: 
Therapy criteria: 
Identify the therapy modality by name. 
Identify the originator (creator) of the specific modality. 
Identify a specific diagnosis or population this modality is especially helpful with. 
Note specific focus, emphasis, and/or goals of this modality. 
Therapy modalities (define criteria for each modality): 
Psychoanalytic Therapy
Adlerian Psychotherapy
