Anchoring in Change
Copyright :
We often see powerful emotional shifts in therapy sessions, but what do we do then? So often, unless anchored in these powerful moments, these shifts don’t stick, and clients return session after session fundamentally un-changed despite powerful experiences in the room. New psychotherapy research shows us how to harness the power of these emotional and relational in-session shifts to anchor in “positive neuroplasticy,” turbocharge their potency and promote outside of session flourishing. In this new keynote, Diane Fosha, using actual therapy videos, will share how to work with these in-session shifts, specifically showing how AEDP turbocharges the potency of these moments with systematic interventions. Whatever your approach you use, you’ll walk away with a new understanding of not only how to bring out needed emotional and relational shifts in clients but also how to anchor them in for healing and lasting flourishing.
Diana Fosha, PhD
Diana Fosha, PhD, is the developer of AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy), a healing-based, transformation-oriented model of psychotherapeutic treatment and she is founder and director of the AEDP Institute. For the last 20 years, Diana has been active in promoting a scientific basis for a healing-oriented, attachment-emotion-transformation focused trauma treatment model. Fosha’s work focuses on integrating positive neuroplasticity, recognition science and developmental dyadic research into experiential and transformational clinical work with patients. Her most recent work focuses on promoting flourishing as a seamless part of AEDP’s therapeutic process of transforming emotional suffering. Drawing on affective neuroscience, attachment theory, mother-infant developmental research, and research documenting the undreamed-of plasticity in the adult brain, AEDP has developed an experiential clinical practice, which reflects the integration of science, research and practice in psychotherapy.
Based in New York City, where she lives and practices, Fosha has been on the faculties of the Departments of Psychiatry and Psychology of NYU and St. Luke’s/Roosevelt Medical Centers (now Mount Sinai) in NYC, and of the doctoral programs in clinical psychology at the Derner Institute for Advanced Psychological Studies at Adelphi University and at The City University of New York.
