Frequently asked questions
Where is half-price therapy under this program available?
The locations include the following cities: Woodbridge VA., Pasadena CA, Washington DC, Southfield MI, Pennington NJ, Atlanta GA, New York NY, Ardmore PA., and Toronto, Canada.
What do I need to commit to? We ask that you commit to a 12-week series of couples therapy sessions with your partner. Each session will be 90 minutes long.
Will my name be known? No, we will maintain complete confidentiality, and will not tell anyone outside the immediate project professionals team that you are a participant. Even within that team we will use a code system to mask your identity as much as possible.
What will happen in the therapy? The primary approach that we will use is to support you and your partner to explore your relationships using an approach called the Imago Dialogue. This will enable you to be heard, in an environment which is extremely supporting and non-judgmental. Through this you will discover some insights from your past which will help you restore your connection.
What should I expect as a result? In our experience, most couples experience a significant improvement in their relationship during a 12 week course of therapy. Imago therapy will teach you some ways of talking which will help you and your partner explore the underlying issues in your relationship, and find their root causes. Imago never looks to blame or judge one partner, but instead creates mutual understanding and support.
What is the process for participating? Step 1: Please check the study requirements to make sure you qualify Step 2: Contact us on 800 729 1121, or Info@imagorelationships.org. Step 3: We will be in contact with a prescreening interview, Step 4: If you qualify we will ask you to sign a participation form, Step 5: We will put you in touch with the therapist who will work with you. If you have entered the study through contact with one of the participating therapists we will allocate you to work with that therapist. Step 6: At the time of the first session we will ask you to complete some research surveys. This should take about 30 minutes Step 7: You will attend 12 weeks of therapy with the allocated therapist. They will work with you as they would any other client, and you should pay that therapist their agreed rate, which will be 50% of their usual rate. Step 8: Mid-way through the 12-week process we will ask you to take the evaluation forms again Step 9: At the end of the 12-week process we will ask you to take the evaluation forms for the last time.
What if I don’t want to complete therapy? You are able to stop therapy during the 12-week process for any reason. We only wish you to continue to participate in the study if you want to.
Will the sessions be taped? We will be making video tapes of your therapy purposes, primarily so we can evaluate that the therapy you are receiving is the same quality as others in the study. You have the option to ask that those tapes be used for no other purpose. We regard these tapes as highly confidential, and have processes in place to ensure they are safe.
What will Imago do with the research results? Imago evolved from the practical work of Harville Hendrix, PhD and his associates in their psychotherapy practices. They found what worked with couples, and taught other therapists, who found these techniques to be equally successful. Most couples who started with poor relationships found their connection was restored, and as they told their friends, so Imago grew.
Today, psychotherapy has moved on, and there is much more interest in clinical studies which measure how effective Imago is. Since we believe Imago to be one of the most effective options open for couples, we want all our couples to also have access to this information so they can make a more informed decision when choosing Imago.
