Affective Neuroscience and Psychoanalysis
Moderator: Arseny Tarabanov, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Head of the Research Group "Family Psychotherapy and Neuroscience" at the International Neuropsychoanalytical Society, member of the Neuropsychoanalytical Association (NPSA), Gestalt Practicioner.
The webinar is addressed to a wide range of practical psychologists, psychotherapists, psychoanalysts, medical psychologists, psychiatrists.
The neuroscience revolution, which fundamentally changed the notion of modern psychotherapy, revealed the priority of affect in everyday human life. In parallel with this, in the field of psychotherapy, the locus of therapeutic action began to shift the emphasis from models that promote cognition, and, accordingly, act from the "top down" within the human psyche, to models that affirm the primacy of the bodily roots of the human psyche. The course introduces the paradigm of "affective neuroscience", whose bright representatives are J.Panksepp, S.Porges, and others. The specialists acquire the skills of emotional correction and affective regulation during the therapeutic process.
Purpose: to introduce specialists into the methodology and theory of affective neuroscience to introduce the methods of affective regulation in psychotherapeutic work.
Course program:
1. Emotional systems of the brain and intellect: biological models and psychotherapy (the concept of J.Panksepp).
2. Brain, body and expression of affects: perspectives of S.Porge's polyvagal theory.
3. Functions of emotions in the children's period: regulation, rhythm and sympathy.
4. Emotions and consciousness: multi-level construction of meaning.
5. Right hemispheric regulation of emotions in the process of psychotherapy.
6. Emotions and integration of mental life.
7. Emotions and memory: the transformation of life experience.
8. Emotions and "mindfulness": regulation of affective tolerance.
9. Emotions in intimate relations: loss, search, recovery.
10. Emotional communication, autonomy and intimacy within the framework of family psychotherapy.
Forms of work: mini-lectures with case studies, web presentation, answers to questions.
