Right Brain Psychotherapy, Hardcover by Schore, Allan N., ISBN 0393712850, ISBN-13 9780393712858, Brand New, Free shipping in the US The author proposes that an interpersonal neurobiology of human development allows the understanding of how the structure and function of the mind and brain are shaped by experiences, particularly emotional relationships, and how the relational mechanisms by which communicating brains align and synchronize their neural activities with other brains. Applying this idea to psychotherapy, he outlines the clinical interpersonal neurobiological mechanisms that underlie therapeutic relational psychodynamics, reciprocal nonverbal affective communications, patient-therapist transference-countertransference transactions, clinical empathic synchronization, and interactive affect regulation, as well as clinical work with synchronized mutual regressions, mutual defenses, and mutual creativity. He describes how recent studies of the right brain can reveal the neurobiological mechanisms that underlie the relational foundations of psychotherapy, including evidence of right brain functions in early attachment processes, emotional communications within the therapeutic alliance, mutual therapeutic reenactments of early relational trauma, and therapeutic change processes. He discusses the importance of synchronized shifts in hemispheric dominance between the left and right hemispheres and the unconscious and conscious minds, and a theoretical perspective that integrates a one-person and a two-person psychology, as well as the role of synchronized transient clinical regressions in psychotherapy. He also addresses the role of love in creativity, play, and the arts through early right brain development, and the origins and implications of synchronized right brain-to-right brain communication models for psychotherapy. The final chapter contains a keynote address he presented at UCLA in 2014 on affect regulation and healing of the self. Annotation ©2019 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR ()
