CC19 Symposium 02 - Introduction to 2 Models - Sue Johnson, EdD; Stan Tatkin, PsyD, LMFT
Original Program Date :
Length: 55:52
Description:
Each faculty member will present basic principles for their model to help the audience understand the strengths of the model: EFT and PACT.
The essential features of EFT- a client centered alliance, a focus on emotion regulation and balance, the creation of self and system change, and the key interventions and corrective moments that have been shown to lead to predictable lasting change in love.
PACT was developed out of exciting, cutting-edge research in three areas: developmental neuroscience, biology of human arousal, and attachment theory. PACT focuses strongly on moment-to-moment shifts in the face, body, and voice, and asks partners to pay close attention to these while they interact. The goal is secure functioning.
