Polyvagal Informed Imago Relationship Workshop
MOVING FROM SURVIVAL TO CONNECTION IN THE SPACE BETWEEN with Hayley Hoffman and Orli Wahrman
Join us for an experiential two-day training that explores the powerful mariage of Polyvagal Theory and Imago Relationship Therapy. This integrative approach combines neuroscience and relational practice to help therapists guide couples from reactivity and defense toward safety, regulation, and genuine connection.
Polyvagal-Informed Imago Relationship Therapy gives clinicians practical tools to recognize and regulate the nervous system states that fuel conflict. By blending Imago’s structured dialogue with a Polyvagal understanding of safety and co-regulation, therapists gain deeper insight into how clients experience threat and disconnection — and how to help them return to calm, presence, and partnership.
Participants will learn to:
- Regulating before relating: Cultivating awareness of physiological states and cues of safety.
- Listening beyond words: Tuning into tone, rhythm, and body signals that shape connection.
- Repairing ruptures with compassion: Using empathic dialogue to restore safety and trust.
- Sustaining resonance: Expanding the capacity for presence, curiosity, and shared calm.
- Experience embodied exercises that enhance safety, co-regulation, and nervous system attunement.
This training honors both the biology of love and the art of dialogue. You’ll explore how the autonomic nervous system shapes perception, defense, and connection — and how to weave Polyvagal-informed interventions into Imago’s core processes.
Through a mix of didactic learning, live demonstration, and guided practice, you’ll develop embodied confidence and a stronger therapeutic presence. Leave equipped with a clear framework and effective tools to help couples move from survival to connection — and to cultivate safety as the foundation for healing and growth.
