    6. Train licensed psychotherapists in Imago Relationship Therapy both in the U.S. and internationally;

    7. Providing supervision support to aid those in training reach certification and;

    8. Train lay people to become Imago Educators.

We are both , Licensed Clinical Psychologists, are on the faculty of the Imago International Institute in New York City. Bruce has been the Dean of the Faculty for the years 2003 and 2004. We have been married to each other for 41 years, have four adult children and three grandchildren.

Working with relationships has become our specialty ever since we went to a "Getting The Love You Want Couples Workshop" by Harville Hendrix in 1989. We were in deep trouble then in our relationship, and even though we were psychologists trying to help others, we were in crisis ourselves.

The workshop was a profound experience for us and turned us 180 degrees around. Our whole family is coming together now in a wonderful way. We are hoping to share what we are learning with you.

After the workshop, we studied under Dr. Harville Hendrix in New York for the next five years (1990-95). We now put on his workshops and train therapists in Imago Relationship Therapy. Francine has written a book on parenting and has developed a workshop for parents.

A step-by-step guide for conscious parenting designed by Francine Beauvoir based on her book by the same name. This one-day workshop provides a comprehensive program, clearly laid out and easily implemented. It has the potential to transform your relationship with your children, step-children, or pupils. Harville Hendrix calls Francine's book, "The best guide for working with parents that I have seen." Learn how to use the family round table to set boundaries without using rewards or punishments while keeping the parent-child bond intact. This is the key to stopping the violence in our society.

The Pasadena Institute For Relationships offers assistance to couples who would like to have coaching in order to improve their relationship. Often in our society this is referred to as "therapy" or "counseling." But we have a philosophy that Intimate Relationships themselves are therapy! Therefore, we become only facilitators that assist you in making your relationship more therapeutic. We understand intimate relationships to be the place for deepest healing and growth. We feel this is the unconscious reason why people get into intimate relationships in the first place (click on "what is imago therapy" in the side bar). If you would like help with your relationship call either Francine or Bruce at (626) 798-5242. We will be happy to set up an appointment for you. Actually, we feel that the most cost effective and powerful way to start working on your relationship is to sign up for the "Getting The Love You Want Couples Workshop" designed by Harville Hendrix that we put on every two months (click on "workshop for couples" in the side bar). Taking this workshop also qualifies you to join one of our couples groups that meet every two weeks. This is a very effective and low cost way to get continued coaching for your relationship in the context of other couples who are also committed to bettering their relationship.

The Pasadena Institute For Relationships offers assistance to singles who have been frustrated by not being able to sustain a satisfying intimate relationship. Call either Francine or Bruce at (626) 798-5242 to make an appointment for a consultation. Since we believe that you were originally wounded in relationship in your home of origin, we believe the best place of healing and growth will also be in relationship. You unconsciously already know this, which is why you have been seeking to get into a committed, intimate relationship. You already sense that this would be the right place to find deep healing and growth. But to learn how to do this, the Pasadena Institute For Relatonships, offers groups for individuals every other Friday and Saturday evenings. In order to qualify for our on-going groups, you need to be a graduate of our "Workshop For Individuals." This is a two-day workshop which we put on twice a year. It is designed by Harville Hendrix and is based on his best seller, "Keeping The Love You Find: A Personal Guide." Click on the link in the side bar called "workshop for individuals" to find out more about this. Both Francine and Bruce are willing to consult with you individually about understanding all these concepts. Call them for an appointment.
