Neuropsychoanalysis/Psychotherapy Consultant

• I want to begin this post with the resources  I use in  consulting with psychoanalytic clinicians  interested in neuropsychoanalysis/psychotherapy: 

I first ask the therapists to review  my " Eight Introductory Lectures on Neuropsychoanalysis/Psychotherapy", published here on my Blog (2023), and then read through with me my compilation of these lectures in my (unpublished) Book/Training Manual, An Introduction to Neuropsychoanalytic Psychotherapy ( 2024). Then, in follow up Zoom consultation sessions we discuss and explore these readings. These didactic consultation sessions around the readings provide the clinicians with a sufficient introduction to the theory and technique of neuropsychoanslysis/psychotherapy.  The therapists then take this knowledge and apply it in their  work with their patients.  

In addition to working through the Book/Training Manual together,  I encourage the therapists to further read the works  of Mark Solms (the creator of neuropsychoanalysis), Jaak Panksepp (the creator of affective neuroscience),  and others listed in my selected bibliography.  

If you are such a psychoanalyst/psychotherapist interested in learning neuropsychoanalytic  psychotherapy theory and technique by reading and discussing these writings with me, please leave a comment here on this  Blog  post and I will contact you. Or, you can email me directly at calanmeltonw@gmail.com. I am happy to offer this consultation as a Clinical Fellow of the International  Neuropsychoanalytic Society.
