WHO DEVELOPED IRT?
IRT was developed by
psychologist Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. and his wife, Helen Hunt during the
early 1980's. Dr. Hendrix wrote the best-selling books, Getting
the Love You Want: A Guide for Couples and Keeping the Love You
Find: A Guide for Singles. Since the 80's Dr. Hendrix has
established the Institute for Imago Relationship Therapy (IIRT)
in Winter Park, Florida, which now has a faculty of 18 trainers around
the world who contribute to the theory and practice of IRT and to
the worldwide training of imago therapists.
WHO
ARE IMAGO THERAPISTS?
Only licensed and credentialed
professionals, who have been through a yearlong training (over 96 hours)
in IRT through the Institute, are qualified to call
themselves Certified Imago Relationship Therapists. After
their training, most imago therapists join the international Association
for Imago Relationship Therapists (AIRT) where they continue
to receive training through national conferences, regional workshops,
newsletters and on-line dialogue with each other. For additional
