Secure Couples
02/17/2026
One of the things I LOVE most about the work that I do is providing EFT Mentorship & Supervision to therapists learning the EFT model of couples therapy.
I've been a clinical supervisor throughout my 24 years as Licensed Psychologist and have a unique passion for teaching. I'm often told that I break down complex EFT processes well (probably because I'm always studying EFT!!).
If you're looking to deepen your work in EFT with couples and want someone to help guide you through that process, reach out via my website so we can chat about your goals and parameters of what you're looking for in the mentorship relationship.
Please note that I call it mentorship (although EFT often refers to it as supervision, which is why I still use the word) because these sessions are a consultation between colleagues and not to be used for clinical hours toward licensure.
Several of my colleagues graciously provided feedback about what it's like working with me, which is also on my website.

Oh, Skeddy. We’re so sad to see you cross the rainbow bridge, but we love you enough to let you go out well ❤️🌈
We learned on November 19 that he had an inoperable tumor in his lungs and was declining fast. The next 2 days were filled with snuggles, a few treats (he lost his appetite), the best walk he’s ever had, and so much love.
We didn’t expect to lose him so soon (his 7-year gotcha day is on Monday, and he’s 8.5yo), but it’s never long enough anyway.
Say hi to Molz for us, Sked. I think she’ll like this version of you. Love you dearly, sweet, quirky, complex Skeddy ❤️💔🌈
Video 10-Intimacy and Touch
Touch is powerful. It can say “I’m here,” “I want you,” or “We’re in this together” without a single word. 🤲
In this video, Katya talks about how we address this within safe and secure relationships.
At Hold Me Tight® retreats, we help couples reconnect emotionally so touch feels safe, exciting, and deeply bonding again.

Video 8-Open & Responsive
💬 “Are you there for me?”
❤️ “Yes, I’m here.”
That’s what being open and responsive is all about, and it’s one of the keys to connection we practice at Hold Me Tight® retreats.
Katya discusses how we will help partners be open and responsive to each other while also dealing with the "yikes on bikes" that comes along with it.
