New Workshop - Hold Me Tight
*Hold Me Tight - is a 2-day workshop for couples – whether they would like to nurture an already secure bond, or feel they would like to improve some areas of their relationship, or are not sure they even want to remain together.
Together we discover that it is not 'learning how to argue better, analyzing our childhood, making grand romantic gestures, or experimenting with new sexual positions' that we need, but learning to be 'open, attuned and responsive to each other and to reestablish emotional connection.'
In this workshop, couples are guided through 7 ‘Conversations’ that will help them discover the negative patterns causing distress in their own relationship, and to create a new trust and intimacy. It is suitable for all couples, no matter their age, length of relationship, or sexual orientation.
*Hold Me Tight - Conversations for Connection is an educational program developed by Dr. Sue Johnson, based on the theory and practice of her Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), a structured approach to couples therapy.
Contact SSWC for more information and to sign up.
