Stephen Porges, PhDStephen W. Porges, PhD is a pioneer in developmental psychophysiology. In 1994, he proposed the Polyvagal Theory, which has been instrumental in transforming our understanding of trauma. The theory is leading to innovative treatments based on insights into the mechanisms mediating symptoms observed in several behavioral, psychiatric, and physical disorders. He is Distinguished University Scientist at Indiana University where he is the founding director of the Traumatic Stress Research Consortium. He is also Professor of Psychiatry at the University of North Carolina, and Professor Emeritus at both the University of Illinois at Chicago and the University of Maryland. His books include: The Polyvagal Theory: Neurophysiological foundations of Emotions, Attachment, Communication, and Self-regulation (2011), The Pocket Guide to the Polyvagal Theory: The Transformative Power of Feeling Safe (2017). He is co-editor of Clinical Applications of the Polyvagal Theory: The Emergence of Polyvagal-Informed Therapies (2018). |
