"This workshop is extraordinary: it is grounded in plausible theory, it is expertly guided, it allows you to share experiences with other couples, it is a safe, nurturing environment for those going through relationship problems, and you leave in better shape and with tools to make further progress. Invaluable."

"This workshop is great for couples who need a little assistance with communicating. Understanding each others feelings and understanding patterns is very helpful for both to learn. This was a helpful tool for us to slow down and look at what we want our relationship to feel like long term."

"One of the best couples workshops I have ever experienced. The facilitators and assistants were  compassionate, knowledgeable and provided a safe space to allow ourselves to become vulnerable and learn and grow as an individual and couple. We could not have asked for a better experience. It was well worth the time and money!"

"The workshop was refreshing and very informative.  Learning about how I impact my partner and my relationship and getting basic skills to repair and strengthen the emotional connection was priceless."

"The Hold Me Tight Workshop really worked wonders for us. From the very first session we were able to communicate better and feel more like a team against the common enemy of our relationship struggles. We learned many tips and exercises that helped reinforce that feeling throughout and we now have the motivation to go deeper with the work and really be there for each other in a more emotionally connected way.  Thank you so much to Carolyn and Regina for this amazing gift!"

“This workshop was incredibly helpful! We worked through more in the 4 hours training block than we have in months of EFT based weekly therapy. The content was easy to understand and apply. The trainers ran the program so smoothly and it was laid out in a way that was comfortable and engaging. Sue Johnson's method has helped us get to not only the root of our marriage problems but also how to heal and repair them as well.” 
"This workshop opened up many new ideas and means of communication to me and my partner.  With the tools provided, we were able to begin to broach long-avoided difficult conversations, and find ways to connect and begin to move closer, rather than letting those topics fester between us and drive us further apart."

"Couples therapy can be really intimidating to start, you're likely in a vulnerable place with one of the most important relationships you have in your life. I'm so glad we were able to take the Hold Me Tight workshop with Carolyn and Regina and all the wonderful facilitators. Honestly, I think everyone should have access to these teachings because they're applicable to all couples. It's so empowering and fills me with hope knowing that there are people out there who have studied couples and can name patterns that exist in all of our relationships! We're really not alone, and that is such a gift. This workshop helped me and my partner lay a groundwork for breaking our cycle of conflict and deepen our love for each other, and even, still after almost nine years together, learn more about each other."
"Conversations about life situations can be hard when things are going well let alone when times are tough; the Hold Me Tight Workshop facilitates conversations that go above and beyond other counseling sessions we have tried and have made an impact on our hearts. "
"The group setting and the presence and input of so many therapists were very helpful. A combination of different perspectives and experiences complemented each other and allowed us as a couple to open up spaces in our discussion that we haven't been able to get to before. Very grateful for this course."
"This workshop quickly revealed, demystified, and shared practical tools to course correct debilitating communication patterns. The process was surprisingly wonderful in this group setting. EFT approach is incredibly effective for us. It was a great value for all that was delivered.  Your expertise, calm, caring, generosity was fierce. You were an excellent team. You gracefully – and miraculously through video - created a safe space for learning, sharing, open feedback, and stillness to think. The workshop was helpful because it gave us a chance to re-visit material with fresh perspectives of other couples. This "slowed down" the process and allowed us to think more creatively and objectively through their lens. Instead of the sessions being solely focused on our issues, it facilitated passive learning in a more relaxing way. We felt more "normal" seeing other couples that were going through similar things. It was a humbling and wonderful experience that you brought each and every one of us through with grace.  Highly recommend…you all rocked it!!!"

"This workshop provided an opportunity to bring in some health in our relationship during such a stressful time. Things like taking a break or naming an unhealthy cycle were powerful actions that allowed negative cycles to halt while providing an opportunity for connection."
