Beyond survival: Using recent developments in the practices of interpersonal neurobiology to promote enduring recovery from violence related trauma.
Dr Dan Siegel is currently a clinical professor of psychiatry at the UCLA School of Medicine where he is on the faculty of the Center for Culture, Brain, and Development and the Co-Director of the Mindful Awareness Research Center. He is also the Executive Director of the Mindsight Institute, an educational organization that focuses on how the development of Mindsight in individuals, families and communities can be enhanced by examining the interface of human relationships and basic biological processes. Dr. Siegel’s therapy practice includes children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families.
Dr. Siegel has published extensively for professional audiences. He is the co-editor of Healing Trauma and The Healing Power of Emotions and the author of numerous articles, chapters, and the internationally acclaimed text, The Developing Mind: Toward a Neurobiology of Interpersonal Experience (Guilford, 1999). His book with Mary Hartzell, M.Ed., Parenting from the Inside Out: How a Deeper Self-Understanding Can Help You Raise Children Who Thrive (Tarcher/Penguin, 2003) explores the application of this newly emerging view of the mind, the brain, and human relationships.
His professional book, The Mindful Brain: Reflection and Attunement in the Cultivation of Well-Being (Norton, 2007), explores the nature of mindful awareness as a process that harnesses the social circuitry of the brain as it promotes mental, physical, and relational health. His latest book is Mindsight: The New Science of Personal Transformation which offers the general reader an in-depth exploration of the power of the mind to integrate the brain and promote well-being. His next professional text, The Mindful Therapist, explores the application of these ideas for the clinician’s own development of Mindsight and neural integration.
