How neuropsychoanalysis impacts clinical practice: An open group discussion

The Arnold Pfeffer Center for Neuropsychoanalysis:

“How neuropsychoanalysis impacts clinical practice: An open group discussion”

As we celebrate 20 years of neuropsychoanalysis, we have begun to outline its impacts on clinical practice. Many clinicians report that neuroscience findings provide support for psychodynamic models and techniques. Neuropsychoanalytic ideas may inspire clinical hypotheses, either explicitly in the moment, or realized in retrospect. Some therapists have intentionally changed aspects of their practice, others have not. We may use neuroscientific ideas much as we use information from other disciplines, sometimes sharing information with patients for educational purposes, or to assist in exploring a dynamic in the treatment. Many other impacts could be described as well.

Join us for an open discussion about how (or if) neuropsychoanalysis has impacted your own work. Because neuropsychoanalysis is a rich area of exploration, with implications at many levels, non-clinicians are welcome to contribute to the discussion as well.
