Summary

• Archive: [Audio] BT16 Workshop 41 - Informational Trance Induction in Couple Therapy: Partners in a Pose - Stan Tatkin, PsyD, MFT Description Description: This second of two workshops will demonstrate the use of informal trance in couple therapy.

• PACT therapists use of posing (partners holding stationary positions) as a major therapeutic tool for both the couple and therapist in managing arousal, attention, and for inducing trance states.

• Attendees will learn a common PACT approach to inducing informal trance states in partners using what’s been termed, The Lovers Pose.

• Partners go into a deeper state whereby the therapist can probe, prod, and investigate more implicit issues that plague the relationship.

• Attendees will view clinical video demonstrations as well as live demonstrations to further illustrate this technique.
