Couples

“True commitment is choosing each other over and over again, because ultimately what makes relationships work is the decision to make them work.”

JOHN GOTTMAN

The Imago process starts by creating a safe space and reducing defensiveness so couples can approach and address the issues they are facing. Partners learn how to deeply listen to each other, respectfully talk to each other, validate differences, and empathise with each other. This is where repair, reaffirming and a sense of reconnecting can start.

Key relational aspects that we work on include:

unpacking impasses, conflict & negative cycles,
understanding your relational histories (defensive adaptations, needs, growth points),
learning effective & compassionate ways of communicating and connecting,
growing the ability to hold differences as valid,
rebuilding trust,
co-creating new behaviours, rituals and reconnecting ways for the relationship,
re-connecting after periods of disconnection.

ALL relationships need attention and time, and what an investment to address the relationship when you are in a more connected space, for example, thinking about getting married, needing a relationship check-up or simply wanting to strengthen an already good relationship.

Pre-commitment and Re-commitment work focusses on:

gaining insights & understanding of yourself, your partner and the patterns of your relationship,
co-creating a vision and values for your relationship,
learning how to resolve disagreements,
learning how to communicate with compassion,
learning how to best support each other in challenging times, and
co-creating relationships habits and rituals that will energise and sustain your relationship into the future.
