IMAGO Weekend Workshops

Harville Hendrix Get The Love You Want!

Weekend Workshop for Couples

A New Way to Love

Based on the imago theory and skill building processes developed by best selling author and psychologist, Harville Hendricks, Ph.D

FEATURED ON OPRAH OVER 17 TIMES!!!

Forget boring lectures, formal settings, awkward interactions, and gimmicky exercises that only lead to embarrassment, frustration, and lots of sighing and rolling of the eyes. The IMAGO Mining for Gold in Your Relationships weekend intensive workshop experience is like none other.

That helps explain why the Oprah Winfrey show has featured IMAGO relationship therapy 17 times – and included IMAGO shows in the list of “Oprah’s Top 20.”

  • Capture the intrinsic value – the hidden gold – of fulfillment, intimacy, and deep connection that can be realized in a mature and loving relationship.
  • Get the love you want and start now to enjoy the profound journey of shared healing, complete happiness, and meaningful communication.
  • The whole process happens within a comfortable, fun, safe, and nurturing environment where you and your significant other will both feel respected, listened to, valued, and individually empowered.

Within hours you can expect to gain fresh insights, priceless relationship skills, and renewed hope based on keen understanding and an inspired sense of discovery. Over the course of the weekend you’ll see yourself and your partner from new perspectives that are not static and contrived but are dynamic and realistic.

IMAGO therapy is based upon the groundbreaking work of Harville Hendrix, PhD. who is the best-selling author of the book “Getting the Love You Want.” IMAGO weaves together leading psychological theories and practical observations on the experience of love into an approach to relationships that is both compelling and easy to understand.

The Mining for Gold weekend is presented by two veteran IMAGO therapists – Melva and Jesse Johnson – who became convinced of its practical value and profound results when they embarked on a new journey of intimacy in their own marriage, thanks to the IMAGO process. In 2008 they co-authored their own book, “Mining for the Gold in Your Relationships”, which is entirely based upon the real-life case histories and relationship successes of their own IMAGO therapy clients.

Emerge from the weekend with a new sense of hope, new relationship skills and a blueprint to chart a new direction for your relationships. Make quantum improvement in your relationship in just 22 hours – versus three months of drawn-out weekly therapy while you feel more pressure and fear that you will run out of time before achieving significant breakthroughs and practical results.

The IMAGO Mining for Gold workshop mines the phenomenal potential and life-changing power of mature love through proven but easy to implement relationship insights, tools, and solutions. Within one weekend it is possible to create a totally new and refreshing dialog of intimacy, communication, and shared partnership.

Take advantage of your full potential both individually and as a couple – rather than trying to take advantage of one another or deflect hurt that still percolates from old wounds festering unseen beneath the surface.

Learn to leverage the power of loving communication that goes beyond words, to delve into the rich meaning and unlimited power and potential behind the words.

Reach a more sustainable understanding of yourself and others, and tap into the natural bliss and harmony you have always wanted to experience – and deserve to taste – as part of your moment-to-moment journey through life.

Mining for Relationship Gold to Get the Love You Want

Feeling connected to someone you love can be the most wonderful and satisfying experience in the world. But too often that sense of dynamic, heartfelt, intimate connectivity slips away – replaced by silent tension, frustration, disagreement, and disappointment. But just one weekend at an IMAGO “Getting the Love You Want” workshop can help you rediscover the lost connection and rejuvenate your relationship in a way you never imagined possible.

This workshop includes: Lectures, guided imagery, written exercises, and communication processes. While couples are invited to participate and to build a support atmosphere, they are not pressured into unwelcome self-disclosure. The workshop emphasizes partners sharing with each other. Confidentially is maintained in a safe and comfortable environment.

The Workshop Saves Time & Provides Immediate Help

The cost of the weekend seminar is minimal compared to the cost of long-term therapy, because you qualify for a discounted group rate. The early registration cost is only $699.00 a couple or $349.50 each. Even the late registration fee of $749.00 is a bargain at only $374.50 per person. The equivalent cost of weekly or bi-weekly therapy sessions could easily exceed ten times that much.


Help Regardless of Current Relationship Status

Some couples have great relationships and want to preserve what they have, other couples are barely together, some have separated, others are considering divorce, some are dating in committed relationships, and still others are engaged and considering marriage. Regardless of their status, all have found the seminar to be extremely helpful.
