The Imago dialogue used in Imago Relationship Therapy is a skill that promotes connection, empathy, and horizontal relationships between couples. Adler discussed the need for equality but did not provide a means for this to occur in therapeutic relationships. This paper describes the Imago dialogue as a means to promote equality and empathy between members of a couple that will be beneficial to Adlerian therapists. The three-part process of mirroring, validating the other, and empathizing are discussed, as well as how to introduce the skill to couples. The neuroscience behind the process is also discussed.
