Introduction to 21st-Century Psychotherapies

Key Points and Terms
Evolution of the Science and Profession of Psychology
Early attempts to address mental disorders include:
► Pre-Christian, temple-like asklepeia and other
retreat centers, which used religio- philosophical
lectures, to assuage if not remedy psychological
disorders.
► Hellenist physicians understood that the brain was
not only the seat of knowledge and learning but also
the source of depression, delirium, and madness.
► Hippocrates insisted that his students address illnesses by natural means.
Psychotherapy in its present guise did not clearly emerge
until the 18th century. Below are some key players:
► Scientific study of the unconscious attributed to
renowned polymath Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz:

Every encounter with our environment causes a change
within us and in our neural functioning. One cannot
unlearn knowledge unless neuronal decay and lesions undo
memory.
Klaus Grawe has noted that “psychotherapy appears to
achieve its effect through changes in gene expression at the
neuronal level.” And research shows that therapy may be
effective through triggering the expression of immediate-
early genes (IEGs) through exposure to nurturant social
events.
Much of the plasticity in our neuro-emotional systems is achieved through epigenetic
changes.
In the current age of psychopharmacology, medicating
patients for psychological purposes should require clear,
preset clinical objectives.
Future developments in molecular genetic analysis,
cognitive neuropsychology, and social cognitive
neuroscience will continue to inform psychotherapy.
Clashing Standpoints
Gillath, Adams, and Kunkel (2012) provide a model
for uniting disparate approaches to study of human
nature.
