Psychiatry and the Virtues
October 27
, 2009
Dr. Kevin Majeres, MD., Psychiatrist.
In the 4th century B.C., Aristotle described how emotions interact with our thoughts and behaviors, and highlighted how the behavioral process of habituation in turn shapes the emotions. This understanding has grown increasingly relevant in psychiatry today. Beginning in its work with anxiety, and then with addictions, cognitive-behavioral theory has moved toward an understanding of the relationship of intellect, will and emotion that closely mirrors that of Aristotle. Dr. Kevin Majeres, a psychiatrist in private practice, will discuss the relevance of Aristotelian virtue theory to the current practice of cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy.
