Imago Relationship Therapy
It's been more than three decades since Harville Hendrix and
Helen LaKelly Hunt--the best-selling authors of Getting the Love
You Want and Keeping the Love You Find--created Imago Relationship
Therapy. Their concept of the "conscious marriage" introduced a new
paradigm for understanding the dynamics of couples. Since that time
more than two thousand clinicians in twenty-eight countries have
adopted and implemented this highly effective form of couples
therapy.
This groundbreaking book offers an overview of the highly
successful Imago Relationship Therapy (IRT) and the relationship of
IRT with preceding schools of thought such as psychoanalytic
theory, family systems theories, affect theory, and
self-psychology. At the heart of IRT is a three-step process
involving mirroring (reflecting) the partner's feelings, validating
the partner's point of view, and expressing empathy toward the
partner's feelings. Imago Relationship Therapy traces IRT's history
and explosive growth and outlines the differences and similarities
between Imago theory and other models of couples therapy. The book
also presents some of the ideas of prominent Imago thinkers, such
as the central role of connectivity and the problem of envy in
committed relationships.
"A uniquely important book for the practitioner, which provides
clinical wisdom and a rare look into the heart and soul of Imago
Relationship Therapy."
--Pat Love, Ed.D., author, The Truth About Love
