The Hidden Truth: Advanced Face Reading and Somatic-Driven Behavior by Dr. Stan Tatkin, PsyD, MFT, Developer of PACT
Learn the secret giveaways your clients reveal and how to use them strategically to be a better therapist.Â
Join Dr. Stan Tatkin as he shares how reading microexpressions of the face and body is a superpower of couple therapists.
Stan will teach you:
- How to train your eye to catch microexpressions and somatic tells in real time to sharpen your clinical effectiveness
- Why attending to nonverbal channels increases empathy across all your social interactions, not just in clinical settings
- How to use what you observe strategically by setting up conditions to test and retest your hypotheses without tipping your hand
- The difference between expressions that are intended to be seen and those that leak out involuntarily
You’ll practice reading microexpressions as a group as Stan shows faces from Paul Ekman's research to increase your skills at reading microexpressions. He’ll also discuss practical tools for how to apply your new insights during couple therapy sessions.
