Relational Neuroscience of Attachment: Where Is Attachment in the Brain? Using the Neuroscience Insight to Guide Psychotherapy

In this course, psychotherapist Dr. Ana Lund, trained in transactional analysis and specialising in the integration of neuroscience into psychotherapy, introduces the brain-based mechanisms of attachment and their application in therapy. Drawing from cutting-edge social neuroscience research and developed in collaboration with neuroscientist Dr. Pascal Vrticka, this session introduces the Neuroanatomical Model of Attachment (NAMA). Lund explains the four key brain modules involved in attachment and demonstrates how distinct neural signatures can inform case formulation and treatment planning. This course offers a refreshing, clinically relevant framework to support more effective, humanistic work with clients across the attachment spectrum.<br/> This course is the second of a five-part series on this topic.
