Description
Join Sebern Fisher, MA for a special lecture on Neurofeedback in the Treatment of Developmental Trauma
The gift of ‘good-enough’ mothering is the gift of ‘good-enough’ affect regulation. Affect regulation is also the gift of ‘good enough’ neurofeedback. This presentation will focus on the impact of neglect and abuse in early childhood on the development of the default mode network (DMN). The DMN gives rise to our sense of self and other. Those with histories of developmental trauma have impaired capacity for a sense of self. When neurofeedback helps the brain learn to regulate affect, the DMN will come online.
Participants will learn:
- To describe the impact of developmental trauma in the default mode network
- To explain the relationship between affect regulation, the default mode network and the sense self
- How to describe the role of neurofeedback in regulating affect
