The Neuropsychoanalysis Foundation supports
education, research, and treatment programs that advance
the integration of neuroscience and psychoanalysis.
We are closely affiliated
with the
International Neuropsychoanalysis
Society.
- Our free lectures at the Arnold Pfeffer Center for Neuropsychoanalysis in New York City are open to all mental health professionals and the public, exploring the intersection between neuroscience and psychoanalysis.
- We support empirical research that investigates the brain substrates of psychoanalytic processes, enriches neuroscientific approaches to cognition and emotion with psychodynamically informed hypotheses, and provides new grounding for effective clinical work.
- Our treatment program makes psychodynamic treatment available to patients with brain damage, meeting the needs of an underserved population and deepening our understanding of the neural underpinnings of mental life.
