<ul><li>Imago Relationship Therapy is a couples therapy based on a relational paradigm, that is, human beings need to be connected to others in order to exist joyfully.
</li><li>Getting stuck in our primary partnerships is normal and is just an indication that growth needs to happen.
</li><li>Imago Relationship Therapy provides a theory of why we get stuck in relationships. It is also a mechanism to help move towards closer connection. This mechanism is called the Imago Dialogue Process. It focuses on transforming conflict into healing and growth through relational connection.
</li><li>There is often a connection between frustrations in adult relationships and early childhood experiences. Where feelings arising from these experiences repeatedly come up with a partner, they can overshadow communication within a relationship. 
</li><li>Furthermore, through Imago Relationship Therapy, couples can work to understand each other’s feelings and “childhood wounds” more empathically, allowing them to heal themselves and their relationship.</li><li>The Imago Foundation course counts as two days of the twelve-day training that you will need if you want to become a Certified Imago Relationship Therapist
