Attachment, Affective Neuroscience and Emotion: An AEDP Primer
Kari Gleiser, Ph.D. & Erica Zinter, LICSW
October 23, 2010, 10am-4pm
at the Center for Integrative Health
In this day long seminar, we will introduce Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), an approach which features clinical interventions rooted in current research in affective neuroscience, emotion and attachment theory. We will explore how experiencing and fully processing emotion in the therapeutic dyad promotes healing and growth. AEDP appreciates how the therapeutic relationship is the matrix through which neural and physiological resources, hard-wired in the mind and body, can be accessed and dyadically regulated to potentiate transformation. The fundamental role of the attuned other in the ongoing rhythm of dyadic coordination, spontaneous rupture and repair will made explicit throught videotaped vignettes of actual therapy sessions. We will discuss and delineate the differences between healing affects and pathogenic affects. The seminar will include lecture, group discussion, case presentation and experiential exercises.
