What assumptions does the model imply about the purpose of therapy with children and teens?

There are 4 phases and 12 stages of Adlerian Psychotherapy.
The four phase include:
(1) Relationship/Rapport Development: The establishment and maintenance of an empathic, respectful and collaborative partnership.
(2) Psychosocial Investigation: The gathering of information in order to obtain a context within which the difficulties can be clarified and understood. Included in this process is the “tracking” of the symptom or dysfunctional pattern, evaluation of functioning in the life task areas, a systematic review of formative experiences, including: family atmosphere, gender guiding lines, big numbers, psychological birth order vantage, early recollections, etc.
(3) Interpretation/Insight: A mutual effort to understand those lifestyle meanings, values and goals that make the dysfunctional pattern or symptom necessary. The Socratic method of asking questions and stochastic guessing method are employed.
(4) Reorientation: Facilitating movement toward more flexible, effective and courageous ways for the client to see him/herself, his/her world and his/her place of significance, security and success.
