PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy) focuses on evoking experience for couples through social cues, movement exercises, conflict enactments, and other psychodramatic techniques.

“It’s okay for partners to make mistakes and take things personally; that’s how we learn. Rather than shying away from conflict, we lean into it. PACT teaches couples how to fight in a way so that nobody loses,” says PACT Institute founder, Stan Tatkin, PsyD, MFT, who developed the approach based on more than 30 years of research across three key areas: developmental neurobiology, arousal regulation and attachment theory.

Talkin runs the program with his wife, Tracey Boldemann-Tatkin.

The three-day portion of the Level I couple therapist training session is Feb. 13-15, and is designed for therapists, counselors and licensed professionals in Westchester County. The training session will take place at the Radisson Hotel at 1 Radisson Plaza in New Rochelle.
