About Imago:

Imago Relationship Therapy (IRT) was pioneered by Harville Hendrix, author of the best seller "Getting the Love You Want", and his wife Helen LaKelley Hunt. IRT utilizes a variety of clinical processes to teach couples (and singles) to identify their defenses against intimacy. IRT also assists in understanding the unconscious forces from childhood that influence partner selection. It also illustrates how these forces, that are rooted in childhood, contribute to difficulty in our adult intimate relationships. In addition to understanding how and why we choose certain partners, a primary goal of therapy includes learning new ways to communicate using a three-part dialogue process which assists couples in breaking out of their destructive, defensive, attacking or distancing communication patterns. Creating safety, trust and the ability to be vulnerable with one another are primary conditions for Imago Relationship Therapy to be effective. The Imago process, when consistently applied in any relationship, has the potential to be a transformative journey toward mutual healing and growth.
