- Short Description:
- This session explores the integration of the "empty chair" psychodrama within the PACT model to interrupt regressive relational patterns rooted in early object relations. By externalizing archaic self–other dynamics, therapists can help partners develop a witness state, promote individuation, and shift ego-syntonic behaviors toward more adaptive, secure-functioning interactions in real time.

These scenarios, often playful or stress-inducing, allow therapists to assess regulation, secure functioning, and communication. Grounded in PACT, this approach blends psychodrama, attachment theory, and strategic role-play to surface implicit behaviors and refine therapeutic direction.
