SAVE THE DATE! 2025 ARMOUR LECTURE SERIES: Using Neurobiology & Positive Psychology to Reawaken Love and Advance Couple & Family Therapy
Recent fMRI research from interpersonal neuroscience, relationship science, and positive psychology will be presented and explained through a systems therapy lens. Then several novel intervention strategies will be described that apply these findings to couple and family therapy. Emphasis will be on interventions that: 1) rekindle love and reactivate its powerful capacities to heal emotional wounds; 2) moderate emotional reactivity by activating the prefrontal cortex to dampen the amygdala; 3) use the prefrontal cortex to more effectively work through disagreements; and 4) encourage couple and family clients to savor pleasant interactions—resulting in greater happiness, more effective conflict management, more frequent intimate conversations, and more optimistic expectancies for the future.
