IMAGO Relationship Seminars

Transformation. Understanding. Connection.

The word IMAGO has more than one meaning, and both meanings beautifully connect to the work we do in relationships.

One definition of imago is the final and fully developed adult stage of an insect, typically winged. When I think of this definition, I think of the dragonfly—a symbol of change, transformation, growth, wisdom, resilience, and the ability to adapt.

I believe our relationships can experience that same kind of transformation.

We don't have to remain stuck in the communication patterns we've always known. With the IMAGO approach, we can learn to understand ourselves and our partners more deeply, communicate differently, and create new possibilities for connection.

The second definition of imago is an unconscious idealized mental image of someone, especially a parent, that can influence our behavior.

This idea can help us understand something important: sometimes our reactions in our relationships aren't really about what is happening in the moment. Our past experiences can shape what we expect, what we hear, how we respond, and what we need from the people we love.

Discover Why You React the Way You Do

In my IMAGO Relationship Seminars, we explore the patterns behind our reactions and learn practical ways to change the way we communicate.

You'll learn how to:

• Better understand your own reactions and emotional patterns

• Recognize how past experiences can influence your relationships

• Listen to your partner with greater understanding

• Express yourself in a way that creates connection

• Slow down difficult conversations instead of reacting automatically

• Practice new communication skills in a supportive environment

• Create greater empathy, understanding, and connection

The seminars include opportunities for couples to work together privately and practice the skills you're learning. You won't simply sit and listen to someone talk about communication—you'll have the opportunity to experience the process together.

And there's something powerful about realizing that you're not the only couple who struggles.

As couples share their experiences, we often discover that many of the challenges we face in our relationships are more common than we realize. Hearing from others can help us feel less alone, while also giving us the opportunity to learn from one another.

A Different Way Forward

Imagine your relationship as a dragonfly emerging into a new stage—not because everything about the past disappears, but because you've learned, grown, and developed new ways of navigating your relationship.

Change is possible. Growth is possible. And deeper connection is possible.

IMAGO seminars will be offered several times throughout the year. Seminar dates will be posted here as they become available.

If you are interested in attending an upcoming seminar—or if you are part of a couple or group that would like to explore setting up a private IMAGO seminar—please contact me. I'd love to talk with you about what you're looking for and how we might create an experience that fits your needs.
