Dr. Jim Bramson interviews his esteemed colleague and good mate - Jeff Cohen.
Jeff Cohen is an articulate, deeply knowledgeable couples therapist with a background as unique as his approach. Before becoming a therapist, Jeff trained as an architect—and that foundation in design informs both his artistry as a visual artist and his craftsmanship as a clinician. In this episode, Jeff shares his journey from blueprints to breakthroughs and offers an inside look at his work with couples through the PACT model and the Hakomi Method.
He reflects on what couples should look for in therapy, what actually works best in the process, and what aspiring couples therapists ought to keep in mind. Jeff is brilliant, candid, and full of wisdom—you’ll walk away with a deeper appreciation for the art and architecture of couples therapy.
And then there’s the Minnesota trivia segment. Let’s just say Jeff nailed the politicians and Bob Dylan but forgot Prince, Judy Garland, the Coen Brothers, and Al Franken. Even so, his Minneapolis roots and mastery of the field are beyond question. Enjoy this rich, insightful, and slightly playful conversation!

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
