All About Hold Me Tight® Relationship Enhancement Program
Do you ever feel like you are in a constant loop with your partner trying to get them to see they are the one to blame? Or maybe it is that one fight that you just keep coming back to?
The Hold Me Tight® Relationship Enhancement Program is a program developed by Dr. Sue Johnson. This aims to teach you and your partner about how to get out of those terrible loops that just keep happening. No more waiting for your partner to notice you, no more hoping to be seen.
If you are like most people, you were not taught this in your upbringing. This is an opportunity to learn and grow.
The Hold Me Tight® Couples Workshop will give you tools to understand your own personal barriers to connection and how to get past them. In short: Our Hold Me Tight® Workshops and private sessions will teach you how to connect with your partner in a more powerful and harmonious way.
Relationship Distress Can Lead to Depression and Anxiety
When we experience pain from our relationships, especially pain that has endured, we oftentimes feel like we’re unworthy or unseen. When we feel this way it can feel difficult to express our needs to anyone much less our partner. It can sometimes feel more painful to share our experience rather than just hold it all in and pretend.
Or maybe you’ve been told the message that you should be able to stand on your own two feet. Aka…suck it up and get over it.
I am here to assure you that your pain is real and there is hope. Instead of pretending, you can have the tools to be more vulnerable. Our Hold me Tight® online Programs and private sessions can help you to identify those points of pain that just hurt the most. Plus, we’ll help you figure out what to do to stop them from poking you so often.
Goals of the Hold Me Tight® Couples Workshop for Relationship Enhancement
Here are just a few goals of the Hold Me Tight® Couples Workshop and what you can do right now to get a head start on them!
Move out the negative cycles (loops) that keep you feeling stuck and alone
One way to get a head start on this goal is to start looking for the patterns in your relationship that bring up those feelings of “stuck-ness”. These are the repeated moves you and your partner make in most of your arguments. One of you continues to bring up more points and the other tries to shut the argument down.
Communicate your desire for connection
This is exactly how it sounds. Just start practicing sharing with your partner when you want to connect. This could be through a short phone call, a hug, or even sharing a laugh.
Experience Joy and Hope again
While this goal pertains to more than your relationship, we all know that when our relationships are in turmoil it can be hard to experience the goodness. One way to start experiencing joy and hope again is to seek It out intentionally. Think about the top three things that bring you joy and go to them!
The Hold Me Tight® Couples Workshop Can Help You Feel More Connected
The Hold Me Tight® online program focuses on creating and strengthening your emotional bond by identifying and transforming the key moments that foster an adult loving relationship. People who have been through the Hold Me Tight® Workshops have reported feeling more open, trusted, and happier when the work is complete.
