A New Perspective on Couples Therapy

Do you find yourselves circling the same issues, feeling trapped in a loop with your partner? Have you ever thought that despite all the talking, there's something deeper influencing how you connect and communicate?

It's a common journey for many couples to reach a point where traditional communication strategies just don't cut it anymore. This realization doesn't mean you've failed; it means you're ready for a deeper exploration. 

Because at the end of the day, couples are not usually fighting about who forgot to take out the trash or why one of you is feeling neglected. Partners who couple up are hoping to feel seen, understood, and protected.

In these moments, where conversations loop back without progress and frustration grows, there's a profound opportunity for change. This is where PACT, the Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy, steps in to guide you toward a new understanding of your relationship.

What is PAcT Therapy?

PACT is a hands-on approach to couple therapy that focuses on how you and your partner interact on a deeper level beyond just words. It's about noticing and understanding the small, often non-verbal cues—like how a comforting touch can ease tension or how a tone of voice can cause discomfort. PACT helps you decode these subtle signals, teaching you to truly listen to each other’s needs and emotions, not just through dialogue but through the way you physically connect and respond. This method empowers you to resolve conflicts, enhance intimacy, and strengthen your bond by paying attention to the here and now. PACT helps you transform your relationship through actions and understanding, not just conversation.

Empowerment in Partnership: Learn to quickly recognize and repair missteps in your relationship, keeping apologies simple and moving forward with a deeper understanding of each other.

Self-Sufficiency: The ultimate goal is for you to say, "We've got this," and truly mean it. I aim to work myself out of a job by empowering you both to navigate your relationship's complexities with confidence and love.
