$79.95

Why do we fall in love? Why do we fight with the people we love most? And why does desire fade — or reignite — in ways that sometimes make no logical sense? The answer lies in the brain.

The Neuroscience of Love takes you beyond emotion and psychology to explore how neural pathways, hormones, and attachment patterns shape the way we bond, argue, and repair.

You’ll learn why certain arguments feel impossible to resolve, why physical touch has such profound healing power, and how to retrain the brain for safety, connection, and passion.

Webinar Overview:

Why do we fall in love? Why do we fight with the people we love most? And why does desire fade — or reignite — in ways that sometimes make no logical sense?

The answer lies in the brain.

The Neuroscience of Love takes you beyond emotion and psychology to explore how neural pathways, hormones, and attachment patterns shape the way we bond, argue, and repair.

In this powerful 90-minute live webinar, Chris Cambas, MA, LMFT unpacks what cutting-edge brain science reveals about love, intimacy, and conflict — and how understanding these biological mechanisms can transform the way we relate.

You’ll learn why certain arguments feel impossible to resolve, why physical touch has such profound healing power, and how to retrain the brain for safety, connection, and passion.

What You’ll Learn

By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

  •  Understand the neurobiology of attachment — how oxytocin, dopamine, and cortisol shape love, trust, and emotional security.
  •  Differentiate between emotional and physiological reactivity in conflict, and how to calm the brain’s threat system.
  •  Explain the neuroscience of desire — why novelty, safety, and vulnerability interact to create or block sexual connection.
  • Recognize how trauma and past relational experiences rewire the brain and impact emotional regulation in relationships.
  •  Apply practical interventions that help couples move from fight/flight to empathy, safety, and intimacy.
  •  Integrate neuroscience-based insights into therapy, coaching, or daily relational life to deepen connection and reduce reactivity.
