E-Books →The Dynamic Self in Psychoanalysis Neuroscientific Foundations and Clinical Cases

Rosa Spagnolo and Georg Northoff seek continuity in the relationship between psychoanalysis and neuroscience, emphasizing how both inform psychotherapy and psychoanalytic treatment and exploring the transformations of the Self that occur during this work. Each chapter presents clinical examples which demonstrate the evolution of the spatiotemporal and affective dimensions of the Self in a variety of psychopathologies. Spagnolo and Northoff analyze the possible use of new neuroscientific findings to improve clinical treatment in psychodynamic therapy and present a spatio-temporal approach that has significant implications for the practice of psychotherapy and for future research.
The Dynamic Self in Psychoanalysiswill be of great interest to psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, neuroscientists and neuropsychiatrists.
