Abstract
This column reviews the basics of DNA methylation and how this molecular mechanism is related to the experience of trauma, the causation of mental disorders, and recovery from both trauma and mental disorders. Emerging molecular genetic findings about the role of DNA methylation in mental disorders fit well with our understanding of what is valuable about psychotherapy. DNA methylation offers a heuristically useful metaphor to broaden our understanding of how psychotherapy works.
