The group will read, study, and discuss books and papers by distinguished authors and researchers that explore some of the seminal concepts and clinical issues in neuropsychoanalytically informed psychotherapy.
For the March 1, 2024, session, the group will read and discuss the following: Mary Edlow and Charlotte Kahn (2023), “Reparative Adaptation After Brain Injury Facilitated by Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy,” 25:1, 53-66, DOI:10.1080/15294145.2023.2196998
The link to this article: https://doi.org/10.1080/15294145.2023.2196998
After reading the entire paper, discussion will focus on the main point – exactly what are the components of a reparative adaptation and whether or not this approach may be considered for our non-neurological patients as well. Clinical case reports will further highlight the significance of reparative adaptation. In addition, we will discuss excerpts from Jill Bolte Taylor (2006), My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist’s Personal Journey (NY: Viking). It is highly recommended and “a very good read” to deepen our understanding of how a reparative adaptation works. A Ted Talk by Jill Bolte Taylor may be found here: https://youtu.be/UyyjU8fzEYU
Learning Objectives: After attending the presentation, participants will be able to
– Define reparative adaptation based on the synergistic interaction between the intrapsychic processes of psychoanalysis, neuroplasticity, and the homeostatic imperative, an evolutionary motive force.
– Describe the importance of research both as a methodology and as clinical technique.
– Discuss the significance of clinical case reports to substantiate further the neuropsychoanalytic approach and the opportunity to offer realistic hope in a deeper and more long-lasting way.
Open to:
NPAP members I $20.00
Other Professionals I $30.00
Candidates I $10.00
Contribution I Strongly Encouraged
1.5 CE contact hours will be granted to participants with documented attendance and complete evaluation form. It is the responsibility of the participants seeking CE credits to comply with these requirements. Upon completion, a Certificate of Attendance will be emailed to all participants.

In this workshop we will provide some basic guidelines pertaining to fees and fee setting, the special circumstances of clinic fees, and of private practice fees and contract. The workshop will serve as the forum to address questions, concerns, and opinions that you as a candidate may have as you start your clinical career at TRCC and/or post licensing, as you are moving into private practice.
We strongly encourage all TRCC candidates, current supervisors of TRCC candidates, and members who graduated from 2020 and on, to attend!

The Edith Laufer Neuropsychoanalytic Clinical Study Center provides emotional support in the next step of your recovery process after a brain injury.
Our licensed professionals treat the symptoms and psychological sequelae of stroke, TBIs, and other brain injuries. These symptoms may include depression, anxiety, identity issues and the feeling that you are just not your old self. After medical intervention and rehab, the next step is to address the psychological, social, familial and environmental challenges. When changes in the brain occur, these changes also affect how we feel about ourselves and how we relate to family and friends.
Our licensed clinicians are trained and highly experienced in this next step of the recovery process. The brain has an innate neuroplasticity and we are here to facilitate your recovery and to enhance your sense of well-being.
Call us today at (212) 924-7440 or email neuro.npap@gmail.com for a free consultation.
What We Offer
Brain-injured patients often experience symptoms of depression, anxiety and a sense that they are not the person they once were. Often they find that psychological services are not available to them after they complete their rehabilitation treatment.
Psychodynamic psychotherapy can help these individuals reduce their psychological symptoms and reestablish a sense of identity and well-being.
How?
In the psychotherapeutic process, we work with you to facilitate your recovery and to reestablish a sense of self.
Who?
We are licensed clinical social workers, psychologists and psychoanalysts, collaborating with an educational consultant and a neurologist.
Educational Outreach
The Center’s licensed clinicians provide ongoing education, facilitate reading groups, give presentations at national and international conferences and contribute to scholarly journals.
About Our Fees
• Medicare and many other insurances are accepted.
• Flexible fee schedule.
• Funding may be available for patients without insurance.
