Hold Me Tight by Sue Johnson

Hold Me Tight by Sue Johnson

Heralded by the New York Times and Time as the couples therapy with the highest rate of success, Emotionally Focused Therapy works because it views the love relationship as an attachment bond.This idea, once controversial, is now supported by science, and has become widely popular among therapists around the world. In Hold Me Tight, Dr. Sue Johnson presents Emotionally Focused Therapy to the general public for the first time. Johnson teaches that the way to save and enrich a relationship is to reestablish safe emotional connection and preserve the attachment bond. With this in mind, she focuses on key moments in a relationship--from Recognizing the Demon Dialogue to Revisiting a Rocky Moment--and uses them as touch points for seven healing conversations.

Through case studies from her practice, illuminating advice, and practical exercises, couples will learn how to nurture their relationships and ensure a lifetime of love.

Sue Johnson has been designing hand-knits since her children were young in the 70's. A love of color motivated Sue to design hand-knits incorporating hand-dyed and hand-spun yarns. More recently Sue Johnson has incorporated butterflies into her designs to symbolize her metamorphosis as she matures. Exploring the use of color and texture has opened up limitless opportunities for creativity. With this book she hopes to inspire knitters to spread their wings and release their innate creativity. Sue has presented creative knitting workshops at the Embroiderers' Guild and Brighton Recreation Center in Melbourne. Sue has also developed and given presentations on the Art of Knitting. Sue originally studied and taught mathematics, then changed career to work as a registered nurse. Sue's recent work has been in research at Monash University. Sue hopes this book will inspire others to explore the possibilities of creating unique knitted items and enjoy the same pleasure she has experienced creating original hand-knits.
