Our primary method is PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy). It’s an approach that focuses on attachment (your history of important relationships), arousal, and regulation. We bring in aspects of other methods depending on the needs of the couple. PACT is probably different than any other therapy you may have tried before. PACT therapists are encouraged to experiment and not have couples take themselves too seriously.
-
We’ll work as co-investigators to explore and test ways of interacting as a couple that will strengthen your bond and set you up for relationship success. There’s no blaming, no finger pointing, and everything we do is about “the couple”. We’ll figure out patterns that are stopping you from getting what you want and work in real time to practice new techniques.
