"So wonderful to have a stepping stone to launch into our next phase of deepening, connecting, and thriving!"-Artist/Gardener
"It was so nice to have the direct one-on-one conversations with my husband. We have needed a model like this to jump into and to get started. There is no way any relationship could not benefit. We will look for continuing education with you." -Massage Therapist
"For maybe the first time, I feel my partner and I are a team. That we are truly committed and now have the tools to progress forward with more success. I have more faith and hope in US than ever."
"This has been a turning point. I wish it was around or we could have found it, learned it, practiced it 10 or 15 years ago."
"We are already much closer after two short days. I have hope about our future and feel encouraged that we don't simply have to survive our lives, but can live the life of our dreams." -Advertising Director
"For me, the impact was to realize that there was a whole level of emotion, the attachment emotions, below the surface. Emotions changed my perspective." -Software Consultant
"The workshop helped us put our cards on the table to begin a conversation to rebuild our relationship. It laid a solid foundation for growth." -Marketing Manager
"We didn't know we could choose to do things differently. It was incredibly powerful to make that realization and change our course. We do not have to continue in our cycle; we can realize what we are doing and connect in a more positive way." -PR Professional
"Made more clear things that I needed to work on with my wife. Not attempting to solve all the problems, but just being there for her."- Real Estate Appraiser

"David and Elli provided a safe and comfortable place for us to explore our fears, needs, hopes and dreams. The time and tools they have given us to delve deep into healing and growth has been positively powerful and life changing. We feel so blessed to have had Hold Me Tight come into our lives and highly recommend it for anyone in a relationship of any kind. " -K & L, Asheville couple
"I honestly did not think my husband was capable of the kind of discussion we had. I felt he was willing, but unable. His responses were, to me, significant and incredibly meaningful"- High School English Teacher
"It was a great opportunity for us to connect and actually talk about 'our dance.' It was awesome knowing that 'the dance' is normal for partners. I would highly recommend this training for anyone in a relationship." -Professional Handywoman
"My husband and I have lived together for four years and been married almost three. In our first year of marriage, he was deployed while I was pregnant. I had our son and he died at 3 and 1/2 months while my husband was gone. My husband came home to a mess. We have been grieving for a year and we became disconnected in that process. Just last week my husband left for three days and said that he wanted a divorce. I was so desperate for the connection and he didn't want to come, but did because we spent the money. This is worth the money even for young, newly married couples. This will teach you skills that will help you have a lifetime of success. I haven't felt this connected to my husband since our first year of marriage. My heart is full of love and understanding for my husband now." -Executive Assistant

"Before this workshop, my partner and I would have such a sense of dread and anxiety when talking about the serious issues in our relationship. I now have such a sense of hope and excitement about our relationship, and the potential for this to be the amazing relationship we both really want. The repair work has begun. I will be encouraging every couple I know to attend this workshop." -Asheville psychotherapist
