FIND HOPE FOR YOUR RELATIONSHIP
The Hold Me Tight Workshop is specifically designed for couples to build intimacy and emotional connection, understand negative patterns that cause conflict, and restore and transform their relationship. At the workshop, you will identify the destructive cycle you are in, and get to the root of the real issues so you can learn to move past initial reactions and understand what your partner is really trying to communicate.
“The key to restoring connection is, first, interrupting and dismantling these destructive sequences and then actively constructing a more emotionally open and receptive way of interacting, one in whcih partners feel safe confiding their hidden fears and longings” – Sue Johnson
WHAT OTHER COUPLES SAY ABOUT ATTENDING ONE OF OUR HOLD ME TIGHT WORKSHOPS:
We would highly recommend this workshop for any couple who is looking to take their realtionship deeper. This workshop helped us recognize the patterns we get into during conflict and that awareness has helped us change our overall understanding of each other.
At first we were very unsure about attending a workshop with other couples, but we are so glad we did! One of the best things we experienced during our weekend workshop was recognizing that we are not alone in some of our relational experiences. Hearing from other participants, watching the vidoes and hearing the presenter was so helfpul for normalizing our experiences. If you’re on the fence, please just go. I promise you’ll benefit and so will your relationship!
Do it! It was better than I expected, and very helfpul.
Attend and go for it, [it’s] worth your while.
Just do it.
The investment is a small price to pay for the overall return, as having a better more fulfilling relationship is priceless.
We’ve done couples therapy before and appreciated what we learned during that time. We weren’t sure what else we would learn during a weekend intensive but we were so grateful we went anyway! We walked away with knowing how and why we get sucked into conflict cycles, a better understanding of our own emotions and how those show up in almost all of our conflict, and finally tangible ways to get out of that conflict when emotions are high.
