Abstract

This paper analyses the connection between psychotherapy and neuroscience, exploring existing literature and research findings on this topic. It focuses on the fundamental principles of researching psychotherapy within the framework of neuroscience, investigating the mental correlates of psychotherapy. Psychotherapy provides deep insight into patients' unconscious processes and the necessity of reconstructing latent memories within the therapeutic environment. The relationship between therapist and patient creates a new affective configuration that enables the reinterpretation of implicit memories, with neuronal changes reflecting psychic transformations. By integrating with neuroscientific research, it provides the opportunity to analyse the impact of other scientific disciplines on psychotherapeutic practice and ensures the integration of complex psychotherapeutic concepts with perspectives from other scientific fields. This interdisciplinary approach enriches the discipline of psychotherapy, successfully incorporating new insights from various areas of science. The connection of different scientific disciplines reflects the improvement of understanding complex dynamics of the mind and encourages further research and application in the field of psychotherapy and neuroscience.
