Coherence therapy as a synthesis of conclusions from constructivist clinical practice and neuroscience discoveries

Journal Title: Psychoterapia - Year 2014, Vol 171, Issue 4

Abstract

The article presents features of a recent constructivist approach – Coherence Therapy, formerly known as Depth-Oriented Brief Therapy. Constructivism, as the epistemology that informs it, is described briefly with its influence on clinical work. Coherence Therapy’s convergence with a crucial neuroscientific discovery of memory reconsolidation is thoroughly discussed together with its implications for psychotherapy in general. A new possible way for integration in this field is suggested as well, followed by a presentation of therapeutic process in the presented approach.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . .. .. . . . ... . .. ... .. .. .. . . .. . . . .. . . . .. . . .. . . . . . . . . . ... . . .
