What is the theory behind this Imago therapy worksheet?
Imago therapy was developed by a psychologist, Harville Hendrix in the late 1970s. According to Imago therapy, two people form the union of a relationship to fulfill their emotional needs that were not fulfilled in their childhood. If the needs are not fulfilled and an individual finds it unable to share their vulnerability with the significant other, conflict arises.
