The PACT Institute's Couple Therapy Training Sessions Come to New York June 9-11
Calabasas, CA (PRWEB) May 03, 2017 -- The Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy® (PACT) Institute has announced New York PACT training sessions for June 9-11. The PACT Institute has trained more than 1,000 marriage and family therapists, social workers, counselors, psychologists and psychiatrists from all over the world in the PACT methodology. The New York training will take place at the Weill Cornell Medical Belfer Research Building in Manhattan.
A Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy® (PACT), developed by Dr. Stan Tatkin, PsyD, MFT, is a fusion of attachment theory, developmental neuroscience, and arousal regulation. PACT has a reputation for effectively treating the most challenging couples. The method aims to promote secure-functioning relationships based on the principles of sensitivity, fairness, justice, collaboration and true mutuality. PACT specifically focuses on evoking experience for couples through social cues, movement exercises, conflict enactments, and other psychodramatic techniques.
The full training comprises three levels, spanning three years. The Level I (beginner) course is taught by the PACT core faculty. The Level II (advanced) and Level III (practicum) courses are taught by Dr. Tatkin. These courses are offered at various locations in the United States. Some levels are also available internationally. In New York, Dr. Takin will conduct the Level II training and Dr. Karen Berry, PhD, will conduct Level I. Dr. Berry, a New York based clinical psychologist and certified sex therapist, is a sought-after PACT-trained therapist with 25 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families.
“We train PACT therapists to find the root of the problem quickly and efficiently so that couples can restore their relationship to a secure-functioning condition as attentive and supportive partners for one another,” explained The PACT Institute’s founder, Dr. Stan Tatkin, PsyD, MFT, a best-selling author, therapist and researcher. The PACT Institute’s faculty members are all highly skilled therapists with successful private practices and have undergone extensive PACT training with Dr. Tatkin.
