“My husband and I attended the Getting the Love You Want workshop in Banff this past weekend and we just wanted to give it a 5 star review, it was wonderful it was exactly what we needed after 14 years of marriage and 2 kids. It gave us a sense of who each other is again, we learned about each other as well as having a lot of fun together. It was hard work, and draining but it was well worth it. I wish I could send everybody I know to one of Kathleen's workshops. It was an amazing weekend and it kind of gave us a little restart. Thank you so much Kathlleen from the bottom of our hearts. It was a pleasure to be there and be a part of the weekend tourney. Thanks very much!”

Testimonials for The Love of Attraction
“What Kathleen & Imago has given us is the ability to look at conflict as an opportunity to get to the core issues and help each other through our individual trials and tribulations in the interest of making our relationship a much better place to be. With Kathleen’s patient coaching, we learned and applied the Imago dialogue techniques, and gained much insight in the concept that neither of us really has to change to accommodate the other, we just have to work on understanding each other.”
"Kathleen’s insight and training helped me with both with my personal goals and in my relationship. Her approach is compassionate and enlightening. I had been apprehensive about seeing a therapist, but I was instantly comfortable with her. With Kathleen, I was put at ease, with the safe environment that she created. I think anyone who wants to better understand how Imago principles apply to them, either as a single person seeking a relationship, or a person in a relationship, would benefit highly from seeing Kathleen.”
“Kathleen is a compassionate and non judgemental listener who held a safe space for me while I started to tackle some of my issues. She allowed me to sort through things in my own way and in my own time. Her support is something I am thankful for.”
“Kathleen was very professional and passionate. Her knowledge of the material provided me with the tools for a successful relationship.”

We are both very grateful to have met you and feel through your exercises it has given us a chance to intimately learn about each other and learn new ways to communicate effectively. I am excited about our future together and I’m not sure I’d be able to say that without your amazing retreat."
“Our absolute sincerest gratitude and appreciation for the weekend retreat. It wasn’t just a retreat, it was a transformation, and wouldn’t have come close to being so incredibly powerful without you and your infinite wisdom at the helm. We were blown away by your insight, energy and profound understanding of relationships, marriage and the secrets to a happy life.”
“The Couples workshop with Kathleen was fun, safe, very informative and life changing. My husband and I appreciated learning the helpful tools of communication and the exercises in the workshop brought us much closer together. This was the best thing we could have done for our relationship. Thank you very much Kathleen, for living up to your promise of helping us to ‘get the love we want’. Amazing weekend!”
“Thank you for the Couples Retreat! It was truly an amazing experience for my husband and myself. We thought you were awesome and could feel your great energy and passion to help others.

The retreat saved our marriage and we will forever be grateful and will use the skills we learned for the rest of our lives!”
“Since the weekend workshop, the amount of support that we have been showing for one another and appreciation and care has been truly uplifting. We have become a true team and are so grateful for the experience we had with Kathleen and cannot wait for the refresher course. There has been the odd time we have slipped into old habits; and our support for one another and our ability to know instantly how unhealthy this makes us enables us to focus on what is important!”
“We thoroughly enjoyed our Couples Retreat weekend. Kathleen’s positivity towards relationships and partnerships was truly refreshing. She was an amazing facilitator. We have seen many therapists who tend to encourage strength, power and independence rather than showing us that we are social beings searching for a loving and accepting partnership. Thank you for this wonderful gift!”
“The weekend provided us with tools that we could use to assist us in communicating properly and effectively with one other during crisis moments and when we REALLY need to be heard by our spouse.

“The weekend provided us with a new outlook on our relationship and the ability to see our wonderful potential as a couple. It gave us confidence in ourselves and each other when it comes to conflict, and some very accessible concrete tools to use for communication. The weekend also brought forth our deep bond and love that was always there.”
“We feel so fortunate to have our relationship back on track after 16 years. The purpose of attending the weekend was to make sure that we both have the skills to keep it that way! Having those skills, we are very encouraged and are now creating our “new” relationship with full and absolute intention and respect.”
“The weekend provided us the ability to identify what we need and express it, thus enhancing the quality of our connection.”
“The weekend was very revealing. It opened up things from our pasts that still persists today, widening our awareness and understanding of each other and our ourselves. Looking forward to the Advanced Couples Workshop.”
“We have benefited a great deal from the openness and insights we gained from the weekend. Since then, our occasional low spots have lasted a MUCH shorter period of time and come with less ferocity. Personally, I now understand that my hubby really does want me in his life and inside myself, I respect him and the ways he wants to be treated much more.”
“We are so grateful. This weekend and Kathleen has made such a difference in our relationship.”
“This program would be great for everyone and I never say things like this!”
“My partner and I were not sure if we were compatible and were considering separating. We decided to take the workshop because we wanted to see if we could build a strong and healthy friendship. Over the weekend, we recognized that our differences could be inspiring instead of threatening to one another. We learned that we have different ways in how we see the world. Before IMAGO, we found it difficult to “bridge” over to see each other’s point of view. We just didn’t “get” one another. Learning the process of dialogue was incredibly helpful to our relationship. We now feel that we are both heard and understood. We see that we are different and now relish our differences and have fun exploring each other’s way of being in the world. The excercises transformed our relationship, helping us validate each other and asking for what we want and need in a loving way. We are on our way to building a strong friendship and our feelings of despair have been replaced with hope that we can build the relationship of our dreams.”
“We now have a completely different relationship now than we did before the retreat. We are doing more for each other and we are listening better. The retreat saved our relationship. I was ready to walk out the door and now, he couldn’t push me out if he tried. Thank you for giving us such a wonderful gift."
“Thank you for an amazing weekend. We truly have not been able to communicate so effectively ever. What normally would have ended in a screaming match with incredible tension and no resolution, ended with us both feeling heard and validated. That was such a great feeling and gave us both hope for our future together. We now have the tools to be able to clear the way! You have made a difference in our lives and given us a priceless gift and I am extremely grateful for that."
“Thank you for facilitating this event that has changed us and our marriage in such a positive way. We feel differently about our relationship now. I have realized how much time was wasted, but I just didn’t know what was wrong and now, thanks to you and Imago, I feel capable to make the necessary changes to my thinking and perceptions. Your style helped us feel safe enough to grow!”
“Thank-you VERY much for an awesome weekend. I had a number of epiphanies and I’m much more responsible in our relationship for it. We are enjoying each other’s company immensely. Personally, I am so grateful that my wife found you as it has helped us understand each other and our individual contributions to our relationship ups and downs much more deeply."
“Kathleen I just want to say “Thank You”. Our marriage was over before this weekend. There was no emotional love connection between us. We were 2 people trying to guard ourselves from the childhood pain triggered by the “other”. Seeing my wife in the most vulnerable state I have ever seen her this weekend made me love this beautiful woman more than I ever have. I certainly don’t wish to make her feel pain ever again. We have much work to do but on the way home as you had said more will leak out, well it did. What was beautiful, is she is trusting me with her feelings. I have tears of hope, relief and joy. Just lying in my bed beside my wife, things have moved from a physical relationship to an emotional one. “I truly Love my Wife today”. The words ” Thank You “do not describe my gratitude for the way you handled our intensive. You have given me the best gift I have ever received. The chance to Love and be Loved.”
