Description

Description:

It’s been 50 years since the revolutionary inception of General Systems Theory that started couples and family therapy. Yet the central concepts were never made precise, or measurable and the theory never became scientific. In this workshop we show how we can now complete this theory and produce effective and powerful couples and family therapy methods.

Educational Objectives:

  1. Accurately define homeostasis in couples’s relationships and know how to achieve it.
  2. Describe the role of physiological arousal and calm during conflict interactions and know how to increase vagal tone.
  3. List the power of turning toward bids in the seven emotional command systems.
