PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy)

PACT, or Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy, is a counseling method that combines insights from attachment theory, neuroscience, and biology to help couples understand and improve their emotional connection. It focuses on how their nervous systems respond to stress and intimacy, identifying patterns that support or hinder closeness. By recognizing these biological and emotional responses, couples learn strategies to manage stress, rebuild trust, and foster secure attachment. PACT emphasizes that relationship issues are rooted in biological and emotional systems, and through therapy, partners can develop a deeper understanding of each other, enhancing intimacy and resilience.
