Doing Imago Relationship Therapy in the Space-Between

TOWARDS CERTIFICATION AS AN IMAGO THERAPIST OR IMAGO FACILITATOR

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.

• Help 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. Therapists may want to count it as 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 Leader.
