Complexity Science in Psychotherapy, Interest Section SPR-IS

Mind Force Society – Institute for Complexity Studies

European Academy of Sciences and Arts

11^th of September 2021, 10-14 CET

On Zoom

The Symposium will consist of short contributions addressing empirical methods, findings and models in the field of complexity science, human change, psychotherapy research, 10-13 CET.

Complexity Science core concepts, such as dynamical systems, self-organization, and interactional synchrony, can provide answers to questions relevant to psychotherapy research, and in general to human change dynamics.

Among open questions are common and specific factors of therapeutic intervention, the integration of the field with neuroscience, the temporal course of therapy, and the emergence of, or transitions between, patterns of functioning. Complexity science offers new analysis tools, theoretical models, new horizons for the evolution of therapy and human change.

The business meeting will follow up, 13-14 CET, replacing the SIG meeting originally planned at the 52nd SPR International Meeting in Heidelberg. The business meeting of the Interest Section will report on events and proceedings since the last Section meeting at the 5th joint European & UK Chapters conference in Krakow (2019). There will be time for discussion of future developments and goals of the Section.

Co-Sponsor

University of Siena

Mind Force Society

Istituto di Psicoterapia Integrata

Società Italiana Terapia Comportamentale e Cognitiva SITCC

Complexity Science in Psychotherapy, Special Interest Group SPR-SIG

Concepts of complexity science address common phenomena known of Human Change.

Psychotherapists and social scientists use many different terminologies to express them.

We will explore the deeper implications of a general theory of Human Change
