PACTFlix: “The Psychological Birth of the Human Infant”

Pop some popcorn and join our Watch Party.

“The Psychological Birth of the Human Infant” 

Based on Margaret Mahler’s pioneering research on child development, the film effectively demonstrates how a child gradually gains a sense of self and individuality while coming to recognize the caregiver as a separate individual. 

The footage was extracted from Mahler’s original research data, which provides the foundation for her theory of separation-individuation.

Watch the film with PACT founder Dr. Stan Tatkin and pause along the way to examine and discuss important elements in the real-life cases shown. You’ll also explore more recent advances in separation-individuation research and theory. 

This will be an intimate, interactive experience, so be ready to join in and actively participate!

Note: If you’re currently taking Level 3 training, you’ll watch and discuss this film in class, so no need to sign up for this event.
