Psychoanalysis and Buddhism: An Unfolding Dialogue
[6 Credits]
Dates:
Continuous
Discounted Price $110 (normally $147)
Although there was a flurry of interest in Buddhism by psychoanalysts such as Erich Fromm and Karen Horney in the 1950s and 1960s, this interest to some extent went underground until recent years. Currently, however there is a marked resurgence of interest in the topic. In this seminar we will explore contemporary thinking about the relationship between psychoanalysis and Buddhism, and examine various ways in which a dialogue between these two traditions can have an impact on psychoanalytic thinking and practice. We will also examine Buddhist thinking and practice through the lens of psychoanalytic theory, and explore various ways in which Buddhism is evolving as it becomes assimilated by psychoanalytic culture.
Clinical Implications and Applications of Psychoneurology: translating neuroscience to the consulting room [Continuous]
[12 Credits]
Dates:
Continuous
Discounted Price $125 (normally $167)

Neuroscience points to the need for healing in the circuitry of the right hemisphere, which is dominant for attachment, intense emotionality and the knowledge of how “to be” in a relationship. Readings and discussions will be focused on what is applicable to clinical practice primarily with individuals, but will extend to couples work as well. [Continuous Seminar]

The Neurobiology of Couples Therapy: Clinical Implications of Mutual Regulation and Dysregulation
[12 Credits]
Dates:
Continuous
Discounted Price $125 (normally $167)
Couples most commonly enter therapy due to repeated, anticipated, and intense periods of mutual dysregulation whereby attachment injuries and adaptations become reanimated. In order to make the most of attachment theory, the psychotherapist must incorporate a working knowledge of the neurobiological processes that underlie all primary attachment relationships. The attachment drive for a secure base involves neurological and neuroendocrine systems and subsystems that determine such things as proximity seeking and contact maintenance in the service of mutual affect regulation. These systems are dysregulated in distressed couples.
In this online seminar Dr. Tatkin, contributing editor for Allan Schore’s A Reader’s Guide to Affect Regulation and Neurobiology, presents his approach to couple therapy in which he integrates attachment theory, developmental neuroscience, psychobiological regulatory systems, and therapeutic enactment. He will also discuss the “pseudo-secure” couple, the therapeutic frame and therapeutic stance necessary to such an undertaking.
