EP00 Dialogue 12 - Facilitating Neurogenesis in Psychotherapy - Judd Marmor, M.D., and Ernest Rossi, Ph.D.
Given a topic, to become aware of the differing approaches to psychotherapy, and to identify the strengths and weaknesses in each approach.
Dr. Polster will portray connectedness as a key human aspiration and specify four pathways along which lost connectedness may be therapeutically restored: Person to person, enhancing relational experience and belonging; moment to moment, restoring continuity and fluidity; event to event, recovering life's storyline; and characteristic to characteristic, integrating the self.
This workshop will attempt to describe certain common factors that, in my opinion, are present in all forms of effective psychotherapy. Examples will be presented and discussed.
