PACT Therapy: Strengthening Relationships with Connection and Understanding

The Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy (PACT), developed by Dr. Stan Tatkin, focuses on building strong, secure relationships through a deep understanding of how our biology and early experiences shape the way we connect with others. PACT therapy helps couples strengthen their emotional bonds by teaching them how to navigate conflict, enhance communication, and build trust in ways that align with their natural needs and responses.

At the heart of PACT is the belief that each person in a relationship brings unique emotional experiences, attachment styles, and nervous system responses. By understanding these factors, couples can develop a deeper empathy for each other’s behavior and begin to work together as a team. PACT focuses on creating a secure base in the relationship, where both partners feel safe, understood, and supported.

PACT has been shown to be effective in helping couples improve communication, resolve conflicts, and create lasting intimacy. By learning how to work with each other’s differences and support each other’s emotional needs, couples can build a relationship that is not only stronger but also more fulfilling and resilient over time.
