What is Imago Relationship Therapy?

  

Imago Relationship TherapyImago is a form of marriage and couple’s counseling developed by Dr. Harville Hendrix and his wife, Dr. Helen LaKelly Hunt. They incorporated and expanded upon the best of all the best counseling approaches into Imago Relationship Therapy. By doing so, they created what many consider the most effective processes available to help couples significantly improve their relationships and restore more loving connections.

People often ask us “what is imago counseling?” Most aren’t sure how to pronounce it. It’s pronounced “ee maa go.”

Imago counseling answers three fundamental questions. (1) Why do we consciously and unconsciously chose the partners we do? (2) Why do we get stuck in our relationship problems? (3) How can we get unstuck? The counseling is a two part process–understanding what’s really going on beneath the surface of our relationship problems and learning very specific relationship skills/tools to help you resolve them.

Imago counseling has enabled us to help couples to heal, grow and create a life together that they didn’t believe possible. Other couples made their relationships even better and engaged couples learned the skills needed to insure a happy marriage.

Imago Relationship Therapy can be experienced in two ways. You can find a qualified Imago therapists who offers marriage counseling.  You can also attend Imago Couples Weekend Workshops for intensive therapy in a safe, discreet group setting.
