Changing Minds in Therapy - Event Cancelled

Margaret Wilkinson

Margaret lectures internationally on contemporary neuroscience and its relevance to clinical practice and is the author of numerous papers. Her book ‘Changing Minds in Therapy’ was published by Norton in March 2010.There is an increasing clinical focus on how insights from the fields of neurobiology, attachment and trauma can be applied to treating patients with a history of early neglect and relational trauma. This presentation will cover issues such as how the brain works to assist in therapeutic change, and how healing from early trauma is tied into, and influenced by, brain function. Cutting-edge research and clinical material will be explored in relation to the practical, clinical challenge of addressing and overcoming trauma
