About Imago Couple Therapy
Develop Greater Empathy, Compassion & Understanding Towards Each Other.
Imago Couple Therapy is a unique and effective form of therapy that helps couples improve their relationship by addressing the root causes of conflict and developing new ways of communicating and connecting with each other. This approach is based on the belief that most relationship problems stem from unresolved emotional wounds and unmet needs from our childhood experiences.
Through Imago Couple Therapy, couples learn to understand their own emotional needs and those of their partner. They also learn how to communicate their needs and feelings effectively, using a structured dialogue that promotes active listening and empathy. By doing so, couples can move beyond blame and defensiveness and begin to build deeper trust and understanding in their relationship.
This unique therapy also focuses on healing past emotional wounds by helping couples understand how their childhood experiences shape their adult relationships. By exploring these past experiences in a safe and supportive environment, couples can identify patterns of behavior that may be contributing to their current relationship difficulties. By understanding these patterns and working to change them, couples can break free from negative cycles of conflict and develop a more positive and fulfilling relationship.
