Truth-Centered Agreement Therapy is a complete clinical framework — and a way of working that changes how clinicians see. CICT trains and certifies the next generation.
Not a technique. Not a protocol. A clinician who has internalized a coherent, truth-anchored way of being with human beings. CICT forms those clinicians — and the framework spreads with every person they serve.
TCAT isn't a modality to add on. It's an integrative architecture — three foundations, three agreement territories, the 4 Queries, and a daily practice — that structures every session.
Three tiers: Foundations, Certified Practitioner, Advanced Specialist. Each tier builds competency before advancing. Clinicians leave CICT formed, not just informed.
Because the work targets governing agreements rather than surface symptoms, clients don't just feel better — they live differently. That's the clinical promise TCAT keeps.
TCAT unifies CBT, REBT, and the Four Agreements under a single organizing principle: functional truth. It gives clinicians a coherent architecture for the entire arc of treatment — not a collection of tools, but a way of working.
Every session, every query, every agreement examined points toward the same question: Is this true?
Dr. Ina Creekbaum's Truth-Centered Agreement Therapy lays out the full method in 32 chapters — rigorous enough to certify clinicians, clear enough for anyone ready to do the work.
Available in paperback and ebook now. Audiobook narrated by Dr. Creekbaum — coming soon.
