      These parent groups will be tailored to the needs of the particular group of parents (depending on the ages of children, temperamental styles of parents and children, and common issues).

The groups involve education; role plays; experience guided imageries, written exercises, and communication practice. You will learn a wide range of practical developmental information and specific tools for creating a stronger, mutually respectful bond with your children.

What is most different about the Imago approach is that it helps you learn how to glean the gifts of your own past and apply them toward creating a better relationship with your children. The absence of this component is why parents learn from other programs, yet don’t do what they know is the right thing to do and, hence, gravitate back to the way they parented before.
