Course Description

If you dread your next appointment with a couple, avoid doing couples therapy altogether but would like to, or love couples and want to do it better, join Harville Hendrix, Ph.D., Helen LaKelly Hunt, Ph.D., Carol Kramer, LICSW with Imago Faculty Associate Joanne Audyatis, LMHC, in this rare opportunity to study with the founders of Imago Relationship Therapy. In this training, you will shift from looking at the Space-Within partners to the Space-Between them to help them create a transformed, rather than just a better, relationship. This includes:

Helping couples focus on the space-between rather than the space-within
Revisioning their relationship as a partnership rather than a competition
How to talk about anything without polarizing
Shifting from judgment to curiosity and wonder
How to awaken couples from their symbiotic trance
Helping couples traverse the seven stages of differentiation
Getting couples to commit to the Zero Negativity and Affirmations process
Connecting current struggles to childhood memories
The power of memory
Helping couples practice a process that integrates their brains
Guiding couples in learning and practicing relational competency
Learning how to create and sustain a Conscious Partnership

Using Imago Relationship Therapy, comprehensively available in DOING IMAGO RELATIONSHIP THERAPY IN THE SPACE-BETWEEN: A Guide for Clinicians, this theory-based skill-building training process will help you, as a therapist, assist couples in transcending their biggest challenge: accepting difference, connecting beyond difference and co-creating a Conscious Partnership that meets developmental needs and restores full aliveness and joy. Each day will include lectures, videos, live demonstrations and the practice of Imago Dialogue processes.

This workshop is open to all professionals who want to use the Imago process in a variety of contexts. Imago therapists may want a review. Certified therapists may want to count it two days towards certification as an Imago therapist by the Imago International Training Institute or, for non-clinical professionals, it counts for two days towards becoming an Imago Facilitator. It also meets some of the requirements of the Safe Conversations Training Institute for a certificate as a Safe Conversations Trainer.
