Step 1 of the pathway • Free webinar

Start with the free webinar.

A live, one-hour session with Kobus van der Merwe explaining the Imago clinical route — what the training covers, who it suits, and how to decide whether it fits your practice. No cost, no obligation.

  • What the 96-hour Imago Clinical Training curriculum covers, module by module
  • How the relational paradigm differs from individual-model couples work
  • The full path to certification, timeline, and investment
  • Live Q&A with Kobus — bring your questions about fit and prerequisites

Why this webinar first

Decide with information, not a sales call.

Imago Clinical Training is a 96-hour clinical commitment. Before you commit time and fees, it helps to hear directly from the person who will be teaching you — what the training demands, what it gives you clinically, and whether your current practice is ready for it. That is what this hour is for.

See the method, not just hear about it

Kobus demonstrates a fragment of the Imago Dialogue live, so you can see how mirroring, validation and empathy actually function as clinical instruments.

Understand the full pathway

From the 2-Day Fundamentals through supervision, certification, and the international Imago register — the stages, the timeline, and what each one asks of you.

Ask Kobus directly

Live Q&A at the end. Bring specific questions about your caseload, your existing training, and whether this pathway is the right fit.
