What is AEDP? | Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy - Part 1 of 3

Let’s talk about AEDP. Join us on PATREON: In this first video in my Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) series, I summarize the core elements on AEDP, a form of therapy developed by Diana Fosha, while attempting to bringing to life what is beautiful and compelling about this emotion-focused way of working. I discuss why emotions are important to our wellbeing, and why learning to express one’s self emotionally with another person can be so transformative. AEDP works to transform our unconscious schemas that tell us we are fundamentally alone, while restoring our faith in our own value and the value of our authentic feelings. In this way, AEDP is about reclaiming our true self and thereby gaining fuller access to our truth and vitality. 00:00 The Fear of Self (Or Emotions) 01:49 An Introduction to AEDP 04:03 The Importance of Tracking Our Emotions 07:13 Tracking Our Emotions Can Be Scary 09:40 How AEDP Helps With the Link Between Emotions and Shame 11:41 Secondary Emotions vs Core Affect 16:34 Undoing Aloneness 21:04 Join Us on Patreon
