“…There is probably also a case to be made for widening the availability of mental health services, and for marketing these services in ways that overcome men's cultural reluctance to seek therapeutic help. 21 But the equation of effective practice with court-mandated cognitive-behavioural interventions for perpetrators -particularly in the UK and the US -needs to be exposed to a more thoroughgoing critique. Activists should reflect upon how men like Mark respond to interventions delivered under the auspices of punishment.…”

Masculinities and Violence Against Female Partners

This article presents the case of a self-confessed perpetrator of domestic violence, called ‘Mark’. Using Mark’s account of his own life, I take issue with the assumption, routinely made in academic explanations of domestic abuse, that most men consider violence against women an acceptable means of ‘accomplishing masculinity’. I argue that a psychoanalytic interpretive reading of men’s lives deals more adequately with the complex relationship that exists between masculinities and violence, notably in its conceptualization of the pattern of idealization and denigration that characterizes many heterosexual men’s relationships with women. This perspective helps explain the persistence of violent behavioural patterns among some men who claim that they want to change. However, the psychoanalytic interpretive perspective offered should be used as a compliment to, rather than a substitute for, those structuralist and feminist perspectives which continue to produce useful insights in this field. The article concludes by exploring the legal and policy implications of a sociologically literate psychoanalytic approach to men’s violence.

“…The transition between therapeutic practice before COVID-19 and the present is marked by the first horizontal arrow representng linear time. The therapeutic space is represented by a square or temenos (see Tudor, 2001;Tudor & Embleton Tudor, 1999), in which we pay attention to the dynamics of administration, the space itself, and the unconscious. The final element, uncertainty (which is, as it were, underneath all of this, and which we anticipate will continue) is represented by a second horizontal indicating a movement forward.…”

This article offers some reflections on current clinical practice in online psychotherapies in the age of the coronavirus pandemic. Drawing on examples from the authors’ own clinical practices, and informed by relevant literature, the article focuses on the implications of the transition from the consulting room to online cyberspace with regard to five themes: transition, the dynamics of administration, therapeutic space(s), working with unconscious dynamics and processes, and uncertainty in a time of uncertainty. As such the article represents a heuristic self-study, enhanced by the authors who are practitioners, educators, and researchers working as a group, appropriately enough, online.

“…Pyramidalshaped neurons comprise 12 billion of the 16 billion neurons in the human cerebral cortex [9]. A psychiatrist-inventor, Hans Berger, in the 1920s, was the first person to demonstrate electroencephalographically-measured brain waves (EEG) [10]. It is now known that each brain wave represents the synchronized action potentials of millions of pyramidal cells in the cerebral cortex [11].…”

Previous studies have shown that environmental enrichment increases neurogenesis and reverses learning and memory deficits in rats with kainate-induced seizures. We tested the hypothesis that exploring a wooden pyramid for 3h/d augments neurogenesis and attenuates the learning and memory deficits following chemical lesioning of the hippocampus and motor cortex with kainic acid (KA). A pyramid exploration intervention (PEI) was created by subjecting rats to residing in a pyramidal wooden structure of 3 h/d for 30 d. We also compared the effects on neurogenesis for PEI to those for aerobic (swimming) exercise (EX) and environmental enrichment via exploration of a rectangular-shaped wooden cage. Following KA seizures, the PEI increased brain neurogenesis. Differences in measures of neurogenesis were not significantly different than those for EX and EE. Aerobic (swimming) exercise and novel environment exposures appear to increase neural plasticity and may be considered a complementary treatment for epilepsy.
