Couples come into therapy with broken agreements that are both explicit and implicit. They fail to realize the importance of communication and lack the skills to engage in non-defensive ways to engage a dialogue.  Imago Relationship Therapy consists of a solid framework and set of communication exercises to help couple reconnect through validation and empathy both in and outside the bedroom. Therapists will learn to help couples differentiate and teach them how to self-regulate and have empathy toward their partners in the face of reactivity.  This course will address helping couples become aware of negative, hurtful language and statements from communication and remove it, compiling a safe lists for both partners that creates safety for one another to facilitate communication, applying sexual and erotic health principles and tools to facilitate connection in the bedroom and becoming familiar with several imago communication tools to move the couple from a monologue to dialogue.
