Freud increasingly recognized psychoanalysis, which he had founded, as “a medical approach to the human mind. Adler, who broke with Freud and established “individual psychology,” said of Freud, “It is especially his achievement, second only to his detective skills in speculation, that he shook the status of positivist (materialistisch\u2026materialist) neurology and opened the door to medicine for psychology, which was only an auxiliary science. It is the second greatest achievement after his detective-like skill in speculation (Adlerian Psychology in Our Time\/Ichiko-sha). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although somewhat difficult to translate, materialism is “a position that asserts the primordial nature of matter over spirit. Therefore, it does not recognize spirit, mind, or consciousness as separate from matter, but considers consciousness to be the product of highly organized matter (brain essence), and that cognition is the reflection of objective reality by the brain essence (Kojien).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adler says, “It was Freud’s founding and vigorous promotion of psychoanalysis (\u2252psychotherapy) that led to the development of the viewpoint that psychology, which had been considered not to be medicine, “could be medicine\u2026, You are giving credit where credit is due.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brain scientist Nobuko Nakano commented on Freud as follows.
“\u2026the dramatic advances in brain science over the past decade or so have made it possible to understand many things. There are a number of things that brain science has revealed. For example, a careful reading of Freud’s work reveals that it is a theory that lacks scientific proof and is hardly disprovable. \u2026 (“Psychopaths \/ Bunshun Shinsho).”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adler’s words end with a bit of irony. I get the impression that he was looking at Freud from a point of view closer to that of Nobuko Nakano, since he says that “his detective-like skills regarding speculation” are the essence of Freud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the reasons why Adler and Jung parted company with Freud was that Freud was very strong in rejecting criticism of his own theory as a “universal science.
Adler is not particular about whether his “personal psychology” is a science or not. One gets the impression that he speaks of it as a philosophy. Adler is free. Perhaps the connection between Adler and coaching speaks to that freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
