Family Counseling

"HMT gave us a second chance, created the space each of us needed to work with each other again, and gave me the breathing room that I needed personally."

"Going through the HMT "process" has helped my husband and I communicate more effectively. Knowing what the demon dialogue does to us & how to stop our dance has been pivotal to us really letting each other in"

“Dr. Conrad is very professional and compassionate. We worked together as a team and she helped me heal in ways I never thought possible. As a result of therapy I am able to enjoy life to its fullest. I highly recommend Dr. Conrad.”

"We simply can’t recommend working with Dr. Carol enough! Our marriage had been struggling for a long time, and we went into counseling skeptical (but hopeful) that things could be different. After the Hold Me Tight workshop and hard work together with Carol, we are happier in our relationship, closer than we thought possible, and even better parents. We are eternally grateful to Dr. Carol and EFT; we know the tools we learned have saved our marriage!"

"Dr. Conrad was engaging and encouraging to us. she helped make the workshop a little easier to participate in. The topics at time were emotionally charging, but she was supportive."

"I think EVERY couple should do this!"

“I would encourage others to attend this program even though it is a couple’s workshop you really get in touch with your own personal feelings and needs. That in turn makes your relationship strong. It brings purpose to arguments and conversations rather than wasting time and getting no resolution.”

“I have realized that couple relationships are much more complex than I would have imagined! I have a long ways to go and I’m okay with that–thank you for an excellent program to help me!”

“This program helped me realize and acknowledge my primal driving destructive loop that I continuously loop through with every woman in my life!”

“This program provided us an opportunity to talk about really important issues that we probably wouldn’t have discussed on our own! It provided us some tools to work through problems in our relationship.”
