Publisher's summary

This book updates clinical guidance and theory for Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), an approach that gives patients corrective emotional and relational experiences that mobilize changes in the brain.

Practitioners of AEDP understand psychopathology as a byproduct of internal working models, borne out of insecure attachment experiences, that now thwart adaptive functioning in adulthood. The goal of AEDP is to be therapeutically present with patients and their pain and to guide them to have a new experience—a good experience—thus rewiring memory and capacity to reflect. Updates to the AEDP approach (moving it into its second iteration, or "2.0") leverage emerging findings from the field of affective neuroscience to enhance individuals' healing and transformation.

The authors demonstrate the power of relational work by sharing excerpts and analysis of clinical session transcripts. In each chapter, they engage different aspects of the AEDP model to show how emotional suffering can be transformed into adaptive connection, even for individuals with histories of neglect, abuse, and complex trauma.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Dense but Worth the Effort

This book was written in a scholarly style and sounds like a scientific journal article. If you are wanting to learn more about AEDP, I would definitely recommend that you read Hilary Jacobs Hendel's It's Not Always Depression first, as it is shorter and much more listenable and enjoyable. If you still want to learn more about AEDP after listening to Hendel's audiobook, then listen to this audiobook for a deep dive into AEDP. I think AEDP has a lot to offer as a newer approach to psychotherapy, and more therapists should be aware of it.

The narration is passable, but by no means did I enjoy it.
