Exploring the Neuroscience of Psychotherapy: Why What We Do Works and Doesn’t Work
Sunday March 20, 2011, 10am - Noon
Please note change of location: Molloy College • Wilber Arts Center • Multipurpose Room • 2nd Floor
What do premature infants, colicky babies, children with ADHD, people with autism and teenagers have in common? What does the music of the 50’s, early 60’s and today’s rap tell us about pair bonding, predatory behavior and the use of our voice during sessions? What can a 1200 pound polar bear and a wolf teach us about the deepest aspects of our work? These seemingly disparate questions are answered as we discuss the fascinating work of Dr. Stephen Porges, a neuroscientist and pioneer in the study of the psycho-neurobiology of social engagement and therapeutic change. Illustrating Porges’s “Social Engagement System,” we will discuss a view of the mind-body ‘resiliency zone’ that is radically changing our understanding of what happens in clinical treatment.
Terry Nathanson, LCSW, has been an active student and practitioner of mind-body models of treatment for over 25 years. He integrates Gestalt, Internal Family Systems, trauma based somatic approaches, interpersonal neurobiology and eastern contemplative perspectives. Fascinated with the limitations of talk therapies and the hyperarousal of cathartic therapies, Terry has been passionately drawn to the inquiry of why psychotherapy works and doesn’t work. He has brought his neurobiological orientation to his work with populations as diverse as reactive couples, disordered eaters, adult and juvenile sexual offenders and victims of attachment trauma and maintains a private practice in Ossining and Port Jefferson, NY. He can be reached at terrylcsw@optonline.net
For Information please contact: Lorraine Fitzgerald, MSW, LCSW-R @ lorraine@grieflistener.com or (516) 987-6931.

Working with Divorced Couples and Families
Presented by Carl Bagnini, LCSW, BCD
January 23, 2011
10:15 AM - Noon
Refreshments and Program
Molloy College • Kellenberg Bldg. • Reception Room
No Charge to Members of NYSSCSW
The workshop will cover the dynamics and effects of separation and divorce on the partners, children and especially the therapist. Divorce is about loss, grief, love and hate, and the problem of moving on when letting go is so difficult. We will apply object relations concepts to practice with couples, families and children in the throes of love gone bad. Topics to be covered include: marital love and hate; the therapist's beliefs and working hypothesis in divorce situations; expected and unexpected break ups in couple therapy and the strains on therapist's holding and containment; working with children and parents before and during a divorce situation.
We will use the presenter's and participant's cases in the clinical discussion and application of workshop ideas. Participants will have an opportunity to add related practice topics during the discussion.
