SPS

THE SOCIETY FOR PSYCHOANALYTIC STUDIES

proudly presents “Theories of Affect Regulation:  A Clinician’s Synthesis” with Dan Hill, Ph.D.

Saturday, January 9, 2010

8:30 AM – 4:00 PM Doty Library Board Room Second Floor, Minneapolis Central Library 300 Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis, MN  55401  
Abstract from Theories of Affect Regulation:
A clinician’s Synthesis
  MORNING  PRESENTATION: Regulation theory is an emerging paradigm that is based in integrations of psychoanalysis, affective neurobiology, infant studies and attachment studies.  The primary integrationists are Allan Schore, Daniel Siegel and Peter Fonagy.  In the morning presentation, Dr. Hill will be presenting the basic components of the emerging clinical model:  the broad strokes of the model’s theory of mind, theory of development, theory of pathogenesis and theory of therapeutic action.  He will pay special attention to clinical aspects of the model including the emphasis on dissociation and giving trauma center stage in the understanding of psychopathology.  Finally, he will discuss how the integration of attach-ment theory and neurobiology has led to a re-conceptualization of attachment theory to be about the development of the capacity to regulate affect.
 
 
AFTERNOON PRESENTATION: In the afternoon presentation, Dr. Hill will discuss how regulation theory understands personality disorders to be sequelae of attachment trauma.  Special attention will be paid to two different types of narcissistic personality disorders based in the defensive patterns of affect regulation central to avoidant and preoccupied attachment styles.  These differing types of narcissism will be understood to be based in neurobiological defects originating in attachment trauma during critical periods of the development of affect regulating structures.
 
 
About the Speaker:  Dan Hill, Ph.D.
Dr. Hill is a psychoanalyst, educator and a leading proponent of the paradigm shift to affect regulation theory.  In addition to his private practice, he has taught courses for over 20 years at psychoanalytic and psychotherapy institutes.  These include courses in adolescent development and psychopathology and in the clinical use of multiple psychoanalytic models.  Dr. Hill’s publications and presentations include topics ranging from:  the erotic transference, the clinical use of multiple models, the influence of the internet on psychoanalysis and the possibilities and limitations of video-medicated therapy.  His most recent article addresses religious fundamentalism understood through the lens of affect regulation.  In 1996, he founded and continues to direct PsyBC which provides online and face-to-face continuous education of mental health clinicians.  For the past four years, he has conducted conferences and private study groups focused on a detailed understanding of affective processes and their regulation in normal development, pathogenesis and treatment
