F.A.C.T. A is a two-day course that will introduce you to the theoretical foundations and clinical applications of Imago Relationship Therapy, a powerful and effective approach to couples counseling. The FACT A Program includes an introduction to the Imago dialogue and the Imago supervisory process, in addition to lectures on developmental journeys, the power struggle, and conscious relationships. The course will provide practical skills to help you provide effective relationship help.


This program is designed to introduce Imago Relationship Therapy to a wider range of professionals who might not be ready to commit to the more intensive Basic Clinical Training (BCT) program. The F.A.C.T. A course is worth 16 hours of CE credits.

F.A.C.T. A is identical in content to the first two days of Basic Clinical Training, a 12-day course that leads to certification as an Imago Therapist. Trainees who have completed F.A.C.T. A and who wish to continue on the path toward certification and membership may register to enroll in the first session of a BCT course at a discounted rate, provided that they have met the pre-requisites before registration.

ABOUT BCT


The BCT course is offered in two sections. Level I is a 12 day training program that is usually completed in three sessions of four days each, scheduled over a six to nine month period to enable trainees to practice with clients and prepare DVDs for review. Level II is a six month program of supervision, wherein trainees meet with their clinical instructor or an Imago consultant to discuss their process and present DVDs of their work for review. Level II also includes some written self-evaluation reports. To become certified, trainees are required to submit a final clinical DVD for evaluation, as well as a formal evaluation. The BCT, after F.A.C.T. A, is worth 80 hours of CE credits.

These pre-requisites include:
****Please note that graduate students working toward becoming therapists are eligible to begin training, but certification may only be available once licensure is achieved.****
