Description
Rekindle your connection in our deeply experiential Hold Me Tight couples retreat and the "science of love" proven to rebuild love bonds.
Event Details
Based on the work of Dr. Sue Johnson, the creator of Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples and author of Hold Me Tight. With decades of research behind these proven methods.
Hold Me Tight® Portland is facilitated by EFT therapists Laurel Marshall, MA, LMFT and Noah Roost, Ph.D.
Each event provides you safe spaces to experience it for yourself with your partner throughout the retreat and personal attention.
A 2-day, in-person, non-residential weekend couples retreat in Portland, OR. Designed to give you the tools and experience to break free of the old cycles of fighting, retreating, feeling alone and unheard, healing old wounds, and more.
We will be following the Oregon state guidelines for indoor masks in public spaces. To ensure the safety of our participants, we are limiting the size of the workshop to 15 couples in a large well ventilated space that allows for safe distancing during the workshop.
You'll find and nurture a safe place with each other to rekindle that spark, the old feelings of love, and a deep sense of connection.
You'll identify and begin repairing old patterns and attachment wounds.
You'll see how you're not alone in what you are feeling and experiencing.
You'll experience it for yourself with the guidance of trained EFT therapists.
It's not enough to physically be there in the same space or doing things together. Yes, that even goes for "date nights." Mere presence and familiarity doesn't build love bonds. But the subtle experience of safe connection does.
We've seen it happen time and time again with our couples, some even expressing surprise when they find out they're not alone in how they had felt before they learned how to connect in this way.
As one couple put it:
“I have spent years ignoring or stuffing my feelings. This workshop opened me and my partner to a whole new way of connecting with each other, that actually felt real!”
We have limited space. That's so that each workshop is deeply experiential so you can actually practice it in a safe and supportive atmosphere with trained EFT therapists.
Join us and experience it for yourself, while bringing home the tools to continue these results in your daily life.
And if you are a Therapist - earn 14.75 CEU's for attending if you also register for the continuing education units. Register for $50 after you purchase your ticket. Bring your partner and go through the same deeply felt experience to bring the tools and practices of Hold Me Tight to your work with your clients as well as your own relationship.
