About this listen

Join Lou for a conversation with Joe Palombo, Founding Dean of the Institute for Clinical Social Work and Director of the Center for Neuroscience and Psychoanalytic Social Work. Joe’s work connects the dots between neuroscience and dynamic psychotherapy, talk therapy. Joe will share experiences from his seven years of study with the late Heinz Kohut, the innovator responsible for putting empathy on map, making empathy a household word prior to the discovery of mirror neurons. Joe will update us on the scientific grand challenge of integrating Kohut’s self psychology with brain science in the battle against learning disorders, to which his work is dedicated. The relationship between learning disorders and the development of the self is complex, and Joe discusses treatment issues, including how and when to recommend psychotherapy, how to think about the treatment process, and guidance for the parents of a child with a learning disorder. Join Lou and Joe for an engaging conversations
