Adlerian Therapy as a Relational Constructivist Approach

Richard E. Watts

Baylor University

According to R.A. Neimeyer (2000) and Botella and Herrero (2000), an integrative bridge between cognitive constructivist and social constructionist approaches to therapy might be usefully labeled relational constructivism. This article affirms that Adlerian therapy—both explicitly and implicitly—is a relational constructivist approach, and consequently may serve as an integrative bridge between cognitive constructivist and social constructionist therapies. Both theory and practice issues are discussed.

Key Words: Adlerian therapy • cognitive constructivist • social constructionist • relational constructivism • psychotherapy integration
