Relationship As a Dance:
An Imago-Based Workshop
Thought working on your relationship couldn't be fun? Think again! During this half-day workshop we will explore the elements that heal wounds, foster love and deepen connection in your relationship. We will alternate between Imago-based therapeutic exercises and beginner-level dancing (no prior dance experience necessary). Partner dancing is a perfect (and fun!) way to experience the tension that naturally arises in life and our relationships; it provides a safe way to explore how we can effectively meet and use conflict to make our movement, on the dance floor and in our relationships, flow more easily.

Couplehood As a Spiritual Path:
The Imago Journey for Jewish Couples
Couplehood As a Spritual Path is an educational program for Jewish couples based on Imago Relationship Therapy, a theory of couplehood first presented in the best-selling book, Getting The Love You Want: A Guide For Couples. This six-session educational program takes a look at the psychological and spiritual workings of intimate relationships and is open to all committed couples.
In Couplehood As a Spiritual Path participants will explore the truth about love and conflict and uncover how couplehood is one of God's instruments for healing people and transforming the world.
Workshop leaders, Nicole Kahn, LMFT and Craig Lambert, LCSW, are seasoned therapists who combine their clinical skills and spiritual practices to help create conscious relationships.
Here is what a recent participant had to say about this workshop:
"Craig and Nicole were very open, honest, and professional. Their guidance, knowledge, and experience have shown and given (me and my partner) a foundation to a healthy, happy, present, past and future relationship and life."
