Daniel Hill is a psychoanalyst and educator. He is the author of Affect Regulation Theory: A Clinical Model and is on the faculties of the National Institute of the Psychotherapies and the New York University Postdoctoral Program in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy.

‘In this volume Daniel Hill guides us, gracefully and generously, along the complex path from raw stimulation of the mind to consciousness and the experience of self. Along the way he shows us the central organizing role of affect, and the ways in which affective dysregulation can lead to alarmingly disordered states of consciousness. The result is that Hill provides an accessible account of the workings of the mind, and at the same time a dynamic vision that will illuminate the clinical work of therapists at all levels of experience.’ Jay Greenberg, Ph.D., Training and Supervising Analyst, William Alanson White Institute Recipient, 2015 Mary S. Sigourney Award for Outstanding Contribution to Psychoanalysis ‘In this extraordinary volume Dan Hill convincingly demonstrates that working directly with right brain implicit processes that evolve from the depths of the human mind directly impacts not only right brain subjective consciousness, but objective consciousness generated in the explicit left brain. Grounded in not only his considerable knowledge of recent brain laterality research, expert clinical skills, and ability to evocatively describe his own subjective and reflective awareness, he offers not only a succinct, comprehensive review of his earlier work on right-lateralized implicit functions, but also his ground breaking studies on the spontaneous duplex self that integrates bihemispheric implicit and explicit processes, as well as a clinical model of often overlooked moderate dissociative disorders.’ Allan Schore, author of Right Brain Psychotherapy
