Your Brain on Love: The Neurobiology of Healthy Relationships with Dr. Stan Tatkin

The human brain is 'wired for war.' That's the bad news. The good news is that it is possible - even EASY - to rewire our brains for intimacy and happiness. Dr. Tatkins will explore key pieces for the relationship puzzle. 

 

Stan Tatkin, PsyD, MFT, is a clinician, researcher, teacher, with a private practice in Southern California. He teaches and supervises family medicine residents at Kaiser Permanente and is an assistant clinical professor at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine, Department of Family Medicine.

Tatkin and his wife, Tracey Boldemann-Tatkin, developed the Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy (PACT®) Institute to train clinicians to incorporate a fusion of attachment theory, developmental neuroscience, and arousal regulation to treat couples. PACT® is quickly gaining a reputation for effectively treating couples formerly thought of as untreatable. The PACT® Institute hosts trainings in seven U.S. cities as well as in Australia, Canada, Spain, and Turkey. 

 

Dr. Tatkin’s bestselling books include 'Wired for Love: How Understanding Your Partner's Brain and Attachment Style Can Help You Defuse Conflict and Build a Secure Relationship' published by New Harbinger and 'Love and War in Intimate Relationships: Connection, Disconnection, and Mutual Regulation in Couple Therapy'.
