Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Meets Systems Neuroscience: A New Synthesis
Richard D. Lane, MD, PhD
Professor of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience
University of Arizona College of Medicine - Tucson
Learning Objectives:
- Appreciate how core psychodynamic concepts (unconscious, affect, defense, memory, transference, dreams) can be reformulated in a more empirically tractable manner based on a century of progress in neuroscience.
- Explain how the computational neuroscience concepts of predictive processing and active inference help to explain recurrent maladaptive patterns and their transformation in psychotherapy.
- Describe how memory reconsolidation in interaction with emotion is a core mechanism of change in psychotherapy.
- Explain why new emotional experiences may be more important than insight in promoting enduring change in psychotherapy.
