Has your relationship lost that spark?
Do you love your partner, but keep getting stuck in arguments?
Do you need help communicating with your significant other?
Join us for a Hold Me Tight® Workshop! These workshops are great for:
New relationships wanting to start off right;
Relationships struggling with a new phase of life;
Relationships that have lasted decades and want the next decades to be even better;
Relationships with lots of conflict;
Relationships that have faded to feeling like “roommates;”
Any committed partners that want to deepen their connection!
Hold Me Tight® Workshops were designed by Sue Johnson, the creator of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). EFT is based on the science of attachment. Data that says we are happier and healthier when we have a secure connection with ourselves and with those we love! EFT has more than 30 years of extensive clinical research demonstrating its effectiveness.
Hold Me Tight® workshops are held across the United States and around the world. These popular workshops help couples to understand what’s going on inside themselves and each other and what is driving their arguments. You and your partner will learn to recognize the patterns of conflict that trap you; to forgive old wounds; and to be emotionally responsive to each other, creating deeper connections both emotionally and physically.
In these workshops, we guide couples through seven conversations that help them understand their relationship and their partner better. We will include educational information, videos, and private time for having the conversations. Experienced EFT therapists will be available for questions or assistance! After each conversation, we will come back together and share thoughts about the process before moving on to the next conversation. No one will be required to share anything that they are uncomfortable with sharing. However, our experience has shown that it is powerful to hear other couples and realize you can relate to them! What we won’t have, is hours of dry PowerPoints and a list of ways to place blame!
