I realise the reason for this is my own family experience which I’m continuing to work on in my retirement! In a much more general response based on my years of counselling mainly with young adults, I’ve been surprised on how little sibling relationships have featured in our training.

Comment on The Brain-Mind mechanisms of SEEKING: depression, aliveness, and the location of the core self with clinical implications by Eleanor https://www.confer.uk.com/modules/interpersonal/module-ipnb-panksepp2.html#comment-1054 Fri, 28 Mar 2025 11:12:32 +0000 http://www.confereducation.com/wp/?post_type=video&p=3405#comment-1054 Fasciinating. Dr Panksepp is so engaging in his enthusiasm and in his ability to make what is a complex subject so accessible to us. It is heartening to hear him advocate for the importance of primary process emotions in the understanding and clinical application of client/patients’ presentation(s).
It is a shame that the fixed camera position couldn’t fully capture his delivery.
