Ben Onnink, Matthew C Correll, Andrew Correll, Terry Correll
Moral injury is a relatively new concept with varying definitions that attempts to define a profound and lasting insult to one's conscience caused by perpetration of or directly witnessing harm to another person in a high-pressure situation. This entity is separate from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but it can coexist with PTSD. This article provides psychotherapeutic examples of the diagnosis of moral injury from a psychodynamic perspective, focusing on morally challenging situations related to warfare and the healthcare system...

Clinical decision making by psychiatrists and informed consent by patients require knowledge of evidence-based psychotherapies (EBPs) and their indications. However, many mental health professionals are not versed in the empirical literature on EBPs or the consensus guideline recommendations derived from this literature. The authors compared rigorous national consensus guidelines for EBP treatment of DSM -defined adult psychiatric disorders-derived from well-conducted randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses and from expert opinions from the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada-to create the Psychotherapies-at-a-Glance tool...

JOURNAL ARTICLE

In this paper we introduce the Intensive Mobile Treatment (IMT) model, which arose from a 2016 New York City initiative to engage individuals who were "falling through the cracks" of the mental health, housing, and criminal justice systems. People who are referred to IMT often have extensive histories of trauma. They experience structural racism and discrimination within systems and thus can present as distrustful of treatment teams. We detail the structure of the program as we practice it at our non-profit agency and outline the psychodynamic concepts that inform our work with challenging populations...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Rayna D Markin, Kevin S McCarthy
Meta-analysis has found a significant relation between rupture-repair and client outcome (Eubanks et al., 2018). Rupture-repair processes may be particularly important in psychotherapy for pregnancy loss wherein ruptures related to client feelings of shame and inadequacy, the societal invalidation of perinatal grief, and reenactments in the therapy relationship of early attachment experiences have been theorized to be common and important events (Markin, 2024). Thus, it is important to understand what occurs on a microlevel during the process of therapy to ultimately explain the rupture resolution (RR) and treatment outcome association...

REVIEW

Mandatory and restrictive health regulations during the corona pandemic caused psychic disorders in many people, which even led to clinically relevant mental disorders. At the same time, there was gradually a polarization of opinions among the population. In order to improve future pandemic management, an integrative understanding of these psychosocial processes therefore seems useful. Here we start theoretically with the mental effects of inconsistencies of the information environment by referring to concepts such as the theory of cognitive dissonance...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Fateme Farhoudi, Valentin Artounian, Luc Michel
The article focuses on a male-only therapy group that has been functioning for the last nine years in the Middle East, in Iran. The group has a permanent main female therapist and temporary, mostly female trainee cotherapists. We explore culturally specific factors that we believe impact expressions of aggression in the group. These factors include the Iranian gender segregation culture, the ideal of masculinity relating to the concept of "Gheirat" (moral vigilance), the legal acceptance of multiple wives in Iran (which often leads to family instability), and the cultural belief about the uncontrollability of sexual desires in men...

Treatment resistance in anxiety disorders represents a clinical challenge, contributes to the chronicity of the diseases as well as sequential comorbidities, and is associated with a significant individual and socioeconomic burden. This narrative review presents the operational definition of treatment resistance in anxiety disorders according to international consensus criteria (< 50% reduction in the Hamilton Anxiety Scale, HAM‑A, score or < 50% reduction in the Beck Anxiety Inventory, BAI, score or a clinical global impression-improvement, CGI‑I, score > 2)...

Richard Brockman
Charles Darwin's theory of evolution was founded on the core belief that natural history is one of slow, incremental change, a concept he called "speciation." A hundred years later Eldredge and Gould challenged Darwin's theory, arguing that the data of paleontology reveals something quite different: long periods of stasis followed by bursts of change, a concept they called "punctuated equilibria." This article will follow that progression and then describe the three punctuated equilibria that I believe led to Homo sapiens ...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Brita Reed Lucey
In this article, I employ a psychodynamic lens to describe how women's fantasies of time as standing still, which is encouraged by sociocultural forces, is used to undermine the notion of the biological clock. These fantasies, also fueled by the timeless nature of the unconscious, can lead to hesitancy in not only initiating fertility treatment but also in complying with fertility treatment recommendations. When this happens, hesitancy is often unconsciously utilized in a conflict about becoming a mother. Once these hesitancies are worked through in therapy through a focus on previous losses, fertility treatment often moves forward...

This article presents the findings of an ongoing supervision group (founded in 1999) researching the after-effects of the Nazi period on people in psychotherapy in Germany today. The unacknowledged collective shadow hidden behind half-truths, prevarications, and silence itself prevents a genuine working through of the Nazi past. Patients' lack of knowledge concerning their families' own past leads to unconscious guilt, which often then leads to psychosomatic disturbances. But this is not only a problem in Germany...

The author shares a personal account of 50 years of experience practicing psychodynamic psychiatry and psychoanalysis after migrating from Argentina to the United States. Her career developed in parallel as a clinician and as an academic psychiatrist, with leadership roles in the American Psychiatric Association, the Association of Women Psychiatrists, and the American Academy of Psychodynamic Psychiatry and Psychoanalysis. After describing what constitutes the essence, substance, and form of psychoanalysis, she reviews the historic shift within psychoanalysis in the United States from intrapsychic dyadic practice with selected patients to the application of psychodynamic concepts to everyday psychiatric care of patients with complex morbidities in multiple clinical settings...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Jeffery Smith
The gold standard of scientific medicine is using knowledge of underlying processes to shape treatment. This has previously not been possible for psychotherapy, but with the science of memory reconsolidation, requirements for change can be more precisely defined and can improve psychotherapeutic technique by focusing on three areas: the activation of maladaptive implicit learning, the provision of disconfirming information, and attention to transmission between consciousness and limbic memory. Overall, better understanding of processes helps liberate psychotherapy from rigidities dictated by set methods...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Edward Ross, César A Alfonso
The authors describe the clinical relevance of the psychiatric concept of bidirectionality when caring for persons with comorbid disorders, and they propose a psychodynamic framework to guide the treatment of persons with vision loss and blindness. Since persons with vision loss have an increased risk of depressive and anxiety disorders, they recommend targeted screening, integrated services, and a biopsychosocial approach to clinical care. The psychoanalytic concept of aphanisis, first described by Ernest Jones and later developed by Lacan and Kohut, is briefly discussed...

Access to one's healthy aggression is critical for both patient and therapist. On the patient's end, the ability to access and modulate aggression is fundamental to the establishment of healthy self-esteem and the capacity to sustain relationships and pursue life goals. On the therapist's end, access to aggression allows for the setting of a secure therapeutic frame and the subsequent conduct of the deep work of therapy. Conversely, lack of access to aggression creates burdensome and problematic situations that may subvert the treatment...

Erik Erikson gives us a comprehensive psychosocial schema encompassing the life cycle from birth to death. In elucidating key issues at each life stage-the epigenetic crises-he defines important parameters of development that distinguish between the normative and the pathologic. Individuals at any developmental stage can be evaluated with respect to these fundamental milestones.

An approach to a once-weekly, or bimonthly (every second week), ongoing psychodynamic psychotherapy is described. The detailed description of individual sessions is intended to show the process of the uncovering of unconscious phenomena using this approach, though the therapies described are not complete. Important changes that have already occurred are described. The approach is characterized by a direct method of discovery of early painful situations that underlie specific problematic experiences in the present...

OBJECTIVE: Treatment outcome monitoring typically emphasizes pathology. In contrast, we responded to the need to establish psychodynamic psychotherapy as evidence-based by modeling changes in gratitude and forgiveness. METHOD: We utilized a practice-based research design involving non-manualized outpatient treatment. We employed a longitudinal mixture modeling approach to evaluate treatment effectiveness. We did so by testing the theorized role for relational virtues (i...

BACKGROUND: Obesity has become a significant health concern among young adults aged 18-35 years. Addressing this issue is crucial, and exploring psychological treatments and perspectives specifically for this population is essential. METHODS: This literature review examines psychological treatments for obesity in young adults over the past decade. It focuses on interventions and discussions particularly relevant to this age group. DISCUSSION: Research on obesity often overlooks young adults, with most interventions primarily focusing on weight loss and neglecting emotional aspects...

BACKGROUND: Internet-based interventions offer a way to meet the high demand for psychological support. However, this setting also has disadvantages, such as the lack of personal contact and the limited ability to respond to crises. Blended care combines Internet-based interventions with face-to-face psychotherapy and merges the benefits of both settings. To ensure the uptake of blended care in routine care, Internet-based interventions need to be suitable for different therapeutic approaches and mental disorders...
