The group will read, study, and discuss books and papers by distinguished authors and researchers that explore some of the seminal concepts and clinical issues in neuropsychoanalytically informed psychotherapy.  At this meeting, we will discuss the first half of the book:  Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain, by Lisa Feldman Barrett, PhD, Chapter 1, 2 and 3, Pages 1-63. This accessible, readable, slim book is an introduction to or a review of the brain: how the brain evolved, how brains are structured, and how one brain works in tandem with other brains to create everything you experience.

 All participants are advised to purchase a copy.
