- Short Description:
- This one-hour speech focuses on what all couple therapists should at least consider: social justice and fairness agreements between partners. The human primate is warlike, self-centered, mostly automatic, and given to flights of fancy, moodiness, and other unpredictable feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. Thus, the social science predicate of civilization dictates that, to hold human beings accountable, there must be agreements between individuals that protect them from one another.

- Short Description:
- This conversation introduces a polytheoretical approach to couple therapy grounded in secure functioning—a fair, just, and sensitive two-person system. It integrates attachment theory, arousal regulation, and developmental neurobiology. Techniques include supportive confrontation, cross-tracking, and "going down the middle" to engage both partners effectively. Practical strategies are offered for managing distancing and clinging dynamics and building strong therapeutic alliances.
