An in-person 3-day workshop to help you and your partner better communicate with each other.
Hold Me Tight® Workshop for Couples
Have you faced challenges in your relationship and are wondering what you can do to understand your partner better?
This workshop will help you understand your partner and navigate challenges better.
Learn skills to strengthen your relationship with your partner
Deepen your bond
Repair rifts and conflicts
Communicate better
Join us for this transformational experience and reconnect with your partner.
Based on the book and work of Dr. Sue Johnson
This weekend will center around helping you and your partner successfully have seven conversations specifically designed to increase your intimacy and security with each other.
The seven conversations will not 'cure' all of your problems, but you will walk away with a way to address them, for a lifetime of love.
They are based on Hold Me Tight® and the Emotionally Focused Therapy Model for adult relationships, considered as the most research-validated approach for improving relationships.
