The Hold Me Tight® Program

 A Couples Enrichment Experience

In this workshop, you and your partner will:

  • Strengthen your communication skills (the art of sending clear signals & empathic attunement), so you feel safe, seen, understood and soothed.
  • Repair emotional wounds, rebuild trust and forgiveness, & experience the power of taking open-hearted risks (at the level you choose).
  • Deepen your connection and begin to establish a secure bond.
  • Enhance your emotional and sexual intimacy and ability to keep your love alive!

Meet Your Workshop Co-Leaders

Lana Isaacson, LCSW, CAS

Hello, my name is Lana Isaacson. My mission is to empower you to become a relationship hero! This is someone who, in spite of experiencing hard things, such as emotional hurt with the people you love because neither of you had a blueprint for a healthy intimate relationship, you’re committed to courageous learning and relational growth- for your benefit and for future generations.

I know this humbling journey since I began my marriage and therapy training at the same time- close to 25 years ago- yet, my spouse and I only discovered the wisdom of EFT a decade ago when we participated in a Hold Me Tight® workshop. 

This workshop (& EFT training) transformed my marriage, therapy practice & even how I parent ~ because it gave me a map about what matters the most in relationships ~ the elements of a secure bond. It’s an honor and joy for me to pay it forward and to grow alongside these courageous couples.

Workshops for Couples with Young Children

“It is not children who extinguish the flame of desire, but adults who fail to keep the spark alive.” (Esther Perel)

We reap what we sow. Parents today read several books, take numerous classes, and spend an extraordinary amount of time parenting because we love our children and want to be the best parents possible. Imagine how amazing your marriage could be if you invested the same amount of time, money, and resources!

Keeping the Spark Alive!

Keeping the Spark Alive! is a 3-4 hour, interactive workshop/date supporting couples with young children (birth-middle school age).

As much as partners can likely recall the time that their love and passion for one another was unparalleled, it still might not compare to the awe and obsessive love we have for our children. It is in this stage of your relationship that your focus on your partner (as well as your children) will establish a solid foundation of love and create a legacy for your children- passing down a healthy, fulfilling model of marriage.

In this workshop you will:

  • Reconnect through meaningful communication and conflict resolution exercises.
  • Rebuild your intimacy toolbox to give more generously and get what you want in your relationship.
  • Rediscover how to stay in love and increase desire in your long-term relationship.
  • Reauthor a more loving, supportive, and vibrant relationship; one of the best gifts to your children.

Lana helped us see how good a marriage COULD be

“Making your relationship what you dreamed it would be is the most rewarding project in the world! So many married couples live day to day, thinking their marriage is something to put up with. I knew there was something wrong with how we dealt with each other. Since couples therapy, we are both able to have a voice and an open dialogue about frustrations and we’re more supportive of each other. Fulfillment is at your fingertips if you just have the right tools.  

Workshops for Couples in Recovery

Individuals in recovery deserve to have a partner by their side with whom they can enjoy their recovery journey.

Their significant others also deserve healing, trust restored, and a mutually loving and secure relationship bond as well.

And if couples in recovery are Parents, they’re additionally giving their children the best gift ever: a MODEL for a healthy, long-lasting, fulfilling intimate relationship & the wisdom from recovery!

Lana believed in us

“My husband and I sought therapy because of trust issues. I asked Lana if there was hope for us at the end of our first session. Lana’s belief in us and our willingness to do the couples recovery work helped my husband and me make great progress in restoring trust. I had an amazing experience with Lana and am forever grateful.”

– R

We were living separately

“The couples activities shifted us… When I arrived at the workshop, I was not in the greatest mood having recently felt defeated in my relationship. I hadn’t seen or talked to my husband for a week (since we are currently living separately), so seeing him for the first time felt very raw and emotional. But as the day went on and we were connecting through the exercises and seeing the words he was writing and watching him read the words I was writing, I felt opened up.”

-M

Addiction couldn’t destroy us

“We learned how to rebuild trust and find ways to build a stronger foundation after the devastation active alcoholism and porn addiction.”

– R

Both our voices were heard

“Lana created an emotionally safe environment and encouraged everyone to have an equal voice in the sessions.”
