Two Day Seminar
Sophie Slade, Ph.D
Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th January 2013, 9am – 6pm
Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th May 2013, 9am – 6pm
Imago Relationship Therapy, developed by Harville Hendrix, Ph.D., and
Helen LaKelly Hunt, Ph.D., is a comprehensive and practical therapeutic approach for helping people
experiencing relationship difficulties to achieve relationships which are safe, passionate and satisfying
and which fulfil the potential tasted during the early Romantic Stage. It is a model which sees
marriage/committed partnership as the primary therapeutic relationship with the greatest potential for
overcoming past hurts and for personal evolution towards one’s fullest potential and spiritual growth.
The Imago is an internal image created during childhood from experiences of relationship which
influences our choice of partner and the way we experience things in our adult relationships.
During this 2 day training Sophie Slade, Ph.D., will share some of the basic ideas and assumptions of
Imago Relationship Therapy. She will demonstrate some of the basic skills for working effectively with
couples, and will support you in practicing these skills.
You will leave with a new perspective on how to
empower couples to transform their relationships and some new tools to enhance your work. You will
get a taste of how to make relationship therapy fun. You will discover why Sophie describes conscious
marriage as “making a lifetime commitment to someone with whom you are perfectly incompatible and
then behaving unnaturally”!
These two days count towards the Basic Clinical Training accreditation programme for those who wish
to pursue further training in Imago.
Sophie Slade, Ph.D., is a psychologist in private practice in Montreal, Canada, and a member
of the faculty of Imago International Institute. As a certified Imago workshop presenter and clinical

She has taken a leading role in the Imago community in
developing new workshops and trainings and the new Imago Educator Training Programme which she
