Deep Trauma; Deep Inquiry; Deep Holding: The role of the therapist in the integration of neurofeedback and psychotherapy

Regardless of the kind of therapy we practice, the primary treatment goal with those who have suffered developmental trauma is affect regulation. Neurofeedback can teach brains how to quiet their own limbic eruptions and ease the pulses of fear, shame and rage that overtake these patients.  Developmental trauma is, however, a relational disorder. At its core is the profound experience of motherlessness. This cannot be addressed by neurofeedback alone. With understanding, skill and neurofeedback, psychotherapists can begin to provide an experience of regulation that these patients have not had and with that an experience of having been mothered. This workshop will focus on what the therapist treating developmental trauma must know about the interplay of affect regulation and motherlessness, how neurofeedback can affect the therapy relationship for both patient and therapist and what to anticipate in the therapeutic relationship as you begin to quiet affect. We will touch on the latest developments in the neuroscience of trauma to better understand well- tested and newer protocols for those suffering the aftermath of developmental trauma.

The Inconvenience of Science: When Evidence Challenges Enthusiasm

There have been extraordinary gains in understanding brain dynamics in the last decade. Quantitative EEG and FMRI connectivity studies have done much to better characterise the neural networks that underpin consciousness, as well as different psychopathological states. These demonstrated abnormalities encourage contemplation of the possible therapeutic interventions that may assist in normalising brain function. The literature about the positive benefits of intervention often is based on case series highlighting substantial improvement. However, high quality trials and even the meta analyses of the most investigated disorder, ADHD, have tended to fail to provide the necessary empirical support, for neurofeedback as an intervention.

Applied Neuroscience: Neurofeedback Enhances Executive Functioning

This lecture shows how trauma directly affects the developing brain, and specific brain functions responsible for attention, concentration, regulating emotions and engaging in satisfying relationships. Even after receiving excellent therapy many traumatised children and adults continue to feel chronically on edge, scared, agitated, collapsed and helpless. To deal with this they often try to cope with alcohol or drugs, while doctors prescribe a large variety of different medications that may make life more manageable but that also affect motivation and curiosity, and that rarely really resolve the problem.
