CBT interventions are often favoured for being empirically supported; however, it is not always clear how efficacy of these interventions maps to the actual functioning of the brain. Esteemed neuropsychologist and psychoanalyst, Dr. Mark Solms, joins us for an in-depth discussion of the clinical implications of his research into the biological underpinnings of consciousness as discussed in in his wonderful book, The Hidden Spring: A Journey to the Source of Consciousness. In this discussion we cover :
- why Dr. Solms gravitated towards a psychoanalytic framework to explore the underlying neuroscience of brain function
- the definition of consciousness that Dr. Solms employs when considering matters related to consciousness
- the brain's "workflow" with respect to constructing conscious experience
- how the brain weighs the importance of various competing needs
- the unexpected role of the brain stem and cortex in consciousness
- levering critical implications of this model of information processing to enhance standard CBT interventions
- consideration of therapeutic potential of the therapeutic alliance through the lens of Dr. Solm's system of consciousness
- what his model can teach us about the origins of psychopathology and challenges with personality
- leveraging the content of our dreams knowing their biological basis (Dr. Solms elucidated the specific neurobiological origins of dreaming, beyond REM sleep)
