A wide range of distinguished scientists and clinicians discuss the
nature of change in the therapeutic process. Jaak Panksepp, Ian
McGilchrist, Ruth Lanius, Francine Shapiro, and other luminaries
offer readers a powerful journey through mindful awareness, neural
integration, affective neuroscience, and therapeutic presence to
reveal the transformational nature of therapy. Healing Moments in
Psychotherapy dives deep into the art and science of healing from
the perspective of a variety of clinical approaches and scientific
viewpoints, including interpersonal neurobiology. Through the
voices of a dozen clinicians and scientists presenting their
combined experiences and wisdom, it serves as a window into the
process of healing. Practical examples and empowering research data
support the ways in which therapeutic relationships can help
catalyze health and restore wellness within psychotherapy.

As we move into the third millennium, the field of mental health is
in an exciting position to bring together diverse ideas from a
range of disciplines that illuminate our understanding of human
experience: neurobiology, developmental psychology, traumatology,
and systems theory. The contributors emphasize the ways in which
the social environment, including relationships of childhood,
adulthood, and the treatment milieu change aspects of the structure
of the brain and ultimately alter the mind.
We are hardwired to connect with one another, and we connect
through our emotions. Our brains, bodies, and minds are inseparable
from the emotions that animate them. Normal human development
relies on the cultivation of relationships with others to form and
nurture the self-regulatory circuits that enable emotion to enrich,
rather than enslave, our lives. And just as emotionally traumatic
events can tear apart the fabric of family and psyche, the emotions
can become powerful catalysts for the transformations that are at
the heart of the healing process. In this book, the latest addition
to the Norton Series on Interpersonal Neurobiology, leading
neuroscientists, developmental psychologists, therapy researchers,
and clinicians illuminate how to regulate emotion in a healthy way.
A variety of emotions, both positive and negative, are examined in
detail, drawing on both research and clinical observations. The
role of emotion in bodily regulation, dyadic connection, marital
communication, play, well-being, health, creativity, and social
engagement is explored. The Healing Power of Emotion offers fresh,
exciting, original, and groundbreaking work from the leading
figures studying and working with emotion today. Contributors
include: Jaak Panksepp, Stephen W. Porges, Colwyn Trevarthen, Ed
Tronick, Allan N. Schore, Daniel J. Siegel, Diana Fosha, Pat Ogden,
Marion F. Solomon, Susan Johnson, and Dan Hughes.
What happens between partners that makes love turn to war? How can
couples therapists help deescalate the battles? Two leading
therapists apply the latest neuroscience research on emotional
arousal to help couples regulate each other s emotions, maintain
secure attachment, and foster positive, enduring relationships. The
neurobiologically-grounded and sensitive approach set forth by
Solomon and Tatkin in this book is sure to transform the way
clinicians understand and treat couples in therapy."
In our culture we demand a great deal from our intimate relationships?and we are often disappointed. This book not only reveals the social and psychological factors that lead to marital unhappiness, but also offers guidelines for change. Solomon starts by uncovering certain pervasive narcissistic myths and exploring what it means to be intimate in a culture that values autonomy and self-fulfillment above all. She shows that experiences in early chidhood can lead to narcissistic vulnerability in later relationships. Case examples from her practice clarify how two individuals' feeling states and defenses mesh in the marital system and how the attempt to defend against emotional injury creates barriers to intimacy. The second part of the book focuses on treatment and on ways to change.
Rather than viewing this response as an obstacle, the authors see
it as both inevitable and productive. The book examines not only
classic countertransference issues but also the ramifications of
the therapist's values and experiences. With remarkable honesty,
the contributors deal with illness, death, suicide, pregnancy,
hatred, rage, envy, sexuality, lust, and burnout.
